The CSV Import, not the XMI import.

When you import from CSV, and set the Type and Stereotype to match your Profile's new type name, the new objects created on import do not have the Tagged Values you created in the new profile.

Hope that helps clarify.

Sorry, I got it mixed up.

Anyway, I wouldn't have expected EA to create the tagged values defined by a profile on CSV import. It doesn't create them if you change an element's stereotype either, but only when you create a new element which has that stereotype from the start. And it couldn't fill them on CSV import anyway cause they've never been exported in the first place.

Understand that it creates Tagged values when you create a new object from a profile... but why, if you import CSV and specify that you are importing of the profile's type would it not create a new one of those and WITH Tagged values ready to fill out.  There's the rub.   :)
