Properties for applied stereotypes [message #471137]

Hello

First; great work on adding the sterotype support in the latest version!
I now only miss one thing; the possibility to set the values for
attributes of the applied stereotype (what was called tagged-values back
in the days).

Currently the only way I am able to set these values it through the
property view of an element using the tree-editor from the UML2 project.
I guess what I need is a similar functionality in the property-view
for an element selected in a UML2Tools diagram.

Best regards

Tor

Hi Tor!

I am absolutely agree with you, tagged-values is a very important feauture.
But there are some technical problems in its implementation in diagram
editor. We do our best :)

Best wishes,
Tatiana.

Tatiana,
It should be relatively easy to augment the current Properties tab to
include stereotype property/value pairs, without any change to the
diagram editor. Look at how this is done in the UML2 tree editor. Too
late now for this release, but after end of June I can add a patch for this.

Hi Dave,

The complication is in the fact that code shoud be GMF-generated with some
patches applied to dymamic templates.
Anyway, welcome! To have such a feature in a Diagram Editor would be really
great!

Best regards,
Tatiana.

Hi Tatiana,
To get a good end-user UML modeling tool, I am expecting that most or
all of the Properties view tabs will need to be written using custom
code. I'll see what kinds of magic you can create using GMF-generated
code, but after the June release I'll start creating custom properties
tabs to improve usability...

I guess the same would be needed for parameter lists for operations....

Is there not a feature in the "GMF experimental SDK" that allows for
creation of custom tabs?

Again; keep up the great work !

Hi Dave,

Your thoughts of usability sound very interesting for me as you have a
strong expirience with UML. What other areas of our functionality would you
improve?

Thanks in advance,
Tatiana.

Hello again

I was just wondering whether there has been any progress on this issue
lately? I have searched Bugzilla to the best of my abilities, but cannot
find a bug related to this. Should I file one?

Regards

Tor
