How to control visibility of attributes

[Farrukh Najmi]

In my class diagram I would like to have a project wide default of not showing any attributes. I would then like to show specific attributes on specific classes in the diagram. How can I do this? TIA for your help.

You can achieve what you're after by creating a template package to control the default appearance of Class Elements.
See: http://www.sparxsystems.com/uml_tool_guide/what_is_uml_modeling/using_element_templates.html

In the Template package you will want to create a Class and use the Feature Visibility options to hide all Operations and Attributes.
See: http://www.sparxsystems.com/uml_tool_guide/what_is_uml_modeling/setfeaturevisibility.html

After this all newly created classes will use these settings as default, allowing you to show specific Class attributes (via the Feature Visibility options) as desired.

Also note, the "Diagram | Properties | Elements | Attributes/Operations" options will need to be ticked for any Attributes/Operations to be displayed.
