Hi Linus You can't currently draw ObjectFlows because I haven't got a Fig written yet for ObjectNode
When complete you will be able to have ControlFlows between Actions and ObjectFlows between ObjectNodes and between ObjectNodes and Pins. Pins are effectively ports onto an Action but I don't think I'll use GEF ports to implement.
