How to label attributes of a node in a deployment

[ea_Cubic]

Hi,

How do you enter the attributes of a node in the deployment diagram such that it appears as shown below:

Disk Controller = RAID 1
Disks = 40 GB
RAM = 2 x 512 MB
Processor = 1 GHz P4

Kind regards,

First, right-click your node and choose Element Features --> Add Tagged Values.  You can add each of the 4 items you show as seperate tagged values.  You can even setup the tagged values you normall use (so you can use drop-down and not type them).  This will keep them consistent.

Setup the ones you want on Configuration Menu.  Choose UML --> Tagged Values...

Next, you will will need to turn on the display of the tagged values for your nodes.  You do this by using "Specify Feature Visibility."  Simply click on node and press Shift-Ctrl-Y.

You need check the box that says "Tags".  If you have inherited tags, you can show those as well with the "Inherited Tags" option.

I guess it's more the "Set Run State" from the context menu for an object what ea_Cubic is looking for.

That is cool.  I learned something new!  Thanks Thomas.
