assigning standard tagged values to an element
« on: May 10, 2011, 10:58:48 pm »
I know it can be done, just can't find the option anymore:

I want ALL elements of the type 'Use Case' to be created with the same standard set of five named Tagged values, with empty values. I know we had this working in a previous project, but tagged values are amongst the most documented features and I can't find the reference in the flood of information...

One possibility is to create a UML profile using a stereotyped Use Case, you can choose an appropriate stereotype

The attributes of the stereotyped uses case in the uml profile become tagged values

Save this as a profile, and then import the profile to your project(s), then after creating a Use Case, change its stereotype to that of the UML profile and your tagged values will appear.

Please note, in my experience some tagged value types (like memo) will have to exported and imported in addition to the UML profile.

For more information, refer to the User Guide whihs is well detailed in the area of tagged values  and profiles.

Cheers

You probably were using a template package in your previous project.
