The ground state and the finite temperature phase diagrams with respect to magnetic configurations are studied systematically for thin magnetic films in terms of a classical Heisenberg model including magnetic dipole-dipole interaction and uniaxial anisotropy. Simple relations are derived for the occurrence of the various phase boundaries between the different regions of the magnetic orientations. In particular, the range of the first and second order reorientation phase transitions are determined for bi- and trilayers.
