Tagged Value of type Enumeration - refreshing

[Matt H]

I have a stereotype which includes a Tagged Value of Type=Enumeration.

For instances created from the stereotype, the drop-down list for the Tagged Value is populated as expected however changes to the enumeration are not reflected (eg if I add a value to the enumeration it's not reflected in the drop-down).

What do I need to do to "refresh" the drop-down list from the enumeration?

Sorry if this is obvious.

Try to synch the stereotype from the toolbox context menu.

Might be that won't help. If so you need to script the changes.

Thanks qwerty, that did indeed help.  Strangely I thought I had tried that and it hadn't worked, must be user error!

Quick update in case it helps anyone - re-generating and then re-importing the MDG technology containing the stereotype and enumeration allows "Synchronize Stereotype" to work.  A bit cumbersome!

It doesn't always work though... I've seen cases where new stereotyped objects have the new enum value in the dropdown, but old ones don't, even if the stereotype is sync'd, probably because the tag was already on the object, though that doesn't really make sense.  It seems a little quirky, and no I don't have time to generate a sample to reproduce it!

It might depend on the EA version you use.
