Answer / dan
You can design _model_ of pretty much anything you want
with UML. You cannot design anything with UML.
User interface is just an interface of the system. You can
use UML to reveal functional, static and dynamic aspects of
user interface from model perspective. You can specify
workflow, form contents, sequence of user actions,
deployment aspects, etc. using UML.
Actual _implementation_ of user interface, including forms
layout, design, internationalization, etc are out of UML
scope.
The answer is: we can only model the interface, not design
it.
