Make listed attibutes visible in stereotypes
« on: April 04, 2007, 11:16:21 pm »
When showing a class in a diagram its attibutes can be made visible. When using a stereotype created by a shape script one can make it show single featuers like the name of the class or the name of the stereotype. I think there should be a way of showing the attibutes also when using a stereotype.
I have sent this as request to sparx.

An excellent idea to say the least.

This might be something as simple as a function to list attributes (or operations, or whatever) in a given rectangular area. The area could be controlled by preferred height settings as are shape sizes now. Also, there could be a parameter to control truncation, word wrap, or even size to fit.

Sounds good!

What about the other features also (those shown in the Set Feature Visibility dialog)?
