Hi all,
I have just started to use Papyrus and this is my first post to the forum .

(Previous SysML platform - Sparx EA)

Question: Excuse me if I have missed the obvious, but I am looking for where is a command to copy and paste the visual appearance of an element to other elements. E.g., color of elements on the screen, the size of an element on the screen.

Thanks
Avi

Maybe it is posible to program macros to do such a copy & Paste?
Thanks

Hello,
there should not be a way to copy graphical properties of an element to another, but you could use the CSS to set the wanted appearance to your elements. Beware that it will be applied to all elements matching your css selection rules. https://help.eclipse.org/latest/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.papyrus.infra.gmfdiag.css.doc%2Ftarget%2Fgenerated-eclipse-help%2Fcss.html&cp%3D68_1_10

HTH,
Vincent
