How to make method arguments visible in StarUML diagrams

Question

I am trying to display the arguments in a sequence diagram using staruml

Is it possible to display the arguments like this?

      1: saveResult(int value)

Do you mean is this an adequate way of displaying it, or how do you do it in the specific application, staruml? — tigerswithguitars, Jun 05 '13 at 16:50

Go to Toolbox -> Sequence -> Stimulus.
Drag from one object to another to create the stimulus line
On the side you should see the Properties for the call
In Name put the method name, i.e. saveResult
In the Detail section you can specify arguments. Put the arguments there, i.e. int value
If the arguments don't appear then change the properties of the Sequence Diagram. Change MessageSignature to NAMEANDTYPE
