Left align boundary label?
« on: January 11, 2012, 12:46:51 am »
Is it possible to left align/justify labels on a boundary (or a component, etc, for that matter)?

We are running now EA 15.2.1560 and I'm looking for this exact same feature. Are there any plans from Sparx to provide this in one of the next releases? If not, are there any work-arounds?

As Geert suggested above. Sparx? Well, it has not changed in 10 years. Why now?

In fact, there is a workaround some versions ago (now, we are in version 16.1): Use a Class (or any object instead of Boundary), change the diagram mode to "Custom style", set the element fill as 0%, border dotted and rounded corners (I prefer that appearance for boundaries) and also you can set the element name to top left, top right, bottom left/center/right or any other position you want.

It is not a boundary but...
