Amazing behavior of "Show hidden parent"

[grand.titus]

Hello everybody

I find the "Show hidden parent" option very useful. However I don't undestand why it doesn't work with realization links which are very similar to generalization links.

For exemple, let's take that only Class1 is put in a class diagram. So:
-if Class1 generalises Class2, then Class2 will be written at the top hand left corner of the Class1 box.
-if Class1 realises Interface3, then Interface3 will NOT be written at the top hand left corner of the Class1 box.

Is it wanted?

Hi,

Some discussion in [size=13]Generalization vs Realization[/size] and [size=13]Interfaces don't update[/size] may help clarify why they aren't shown.

It would not be correct to include Realization indicators with Generalization indicators.  However, that having been said, some additional adornment for "hidden" Realizations would be useful.  (Perhaps they could be shown down the left hand side...)

HTH,
Paolo
