How to hide parts of objects in a component diag.?
« on: November 04, 2010, 10:35:27 pm »
For some odd reason some of the objects that are part of my component diagram have a separating middle line, while most don't.

I don't know what's supposed to be displayed in that lower  compartment  (they are all empty in my diagram) and even though I now searched extensively trough the Properties and Feature Visibility dialog and everything else that sounded promising I don't find any option to hide that lower compartment. Where/how is that controlled?

Just found out, that actually ALL objects have the lower compartment. It's apparently only such, that if the rectangle is made small enough, so that it just wraps the name the lower pane and the separating line is apparently automatically hidden.

Can't one somehow hide that lower pane? That would allow to make all objects the same size regardless of how long their names are but still have them all look the same?

I don't think you can.

I'd vote for this as a diagram option
