Note attachment relationships

In UML visualization, a note attachment relationship connects a note or text box to a shape or connector to add additional information.

As the following figure illustrates, a note attachment connector appears as a dashed line between a note and a shape or connector. You can use multiple note attachments if a note or text box pertains to multiple shapes or connectors.

The image shows how a note attachment relationship is represented in a UML class diagram.
