Activity Diagram: Repeat while force leave direction of arrow

Question

Hey guys,

I am stuck drawing an activity diagram with swimlanes and a repeat condition.

As you can see the arrow leaves on the right side of the repeat block - is there a way to force a leave to the left side?

Best regards,

Marco

Hey there,

thanks for your contribution. My bad - I missed to mention that it is only a small piece of a bigger diagram where the left side has already a similar path.

Anyway - thank you!

For now I manipulated the exported png since I have to print that in my nearly finished thesis :P

Best wishes,

Marco
