Hi,

Is there a legend available for the various icons on top of the property icon?

Hi,

This is the visibility decorator.

Red "-": Private
Blue "~": Package
Yellow "#": Protected
Green "+": Public
Nothing: Undefined (The difference between "public" and "undefined" wasn't clear in the UML2.4 spec., but I think they have updated that in UML2.5)

Regards,
Camille

Thank you. What about the arrow that is seen on the 1st and 5th properties?

I don't know. I've never seen this overlay before and I cannot reproduce it.

Also, it seems that some of your properties also have a yellow "-" in addition to the red one. I've never seen this one either.

Do you use a specific profile? Profiles can provide custom images. For example, the arrow on your example might mean that the direction of the property is "in" (SysML has a similar icon for flowproperties with direction = in)

Hmm. How is Papyrus related to other Eclipse components - I hear it is built on GMF? I don't know my way around this, but would like to find out where else can I look for the icon legend.

I don't think I used a specific profile - the model I'm using comes from MDHT. It's a UML model so I created a Papyrus diagram from it.

Papyrus is built on top of many Eclipse components: EMF, UML2, GMF, ...

The standard icons are provided by the UML2 project, which contributes to EMF ItemProviders. Any component which contributes to EMF can provide specific ItemProviders (Specific images).

In a standard Eclipse Modeling installation, I don't know who could provide these icons. But maybe you've installed the MDHT tool? Maybe it does contribute some specific icons?

Sorry, missed replying to this. I don't think it contributes any icons, but it does make heavy use of UML generalisations, subsets and redefines, which are pretty unusual in UML modelling - maybe that is what the icons are for.
