How to update existing model with an updated stereotype

[Kenny]

Hi,
I developed a profile, which contains seveval stereotypes. I had applied these stereotypes in my model and they are spread out in my design. Now I added a new property to one of the stereotypes, but the model that used this stereotype is not updated to reflect this property. It would be quite a time-consuming process to redraw my model with the "new" stereotype. Is there a way to update the existing model to reflect the change of the stereotype?
Thanks.

I wrote a little script that you can use to synchronize the stereotypes:

Right-Click on the icon of the object with the updated stereotype in the toolbox of your MDG.  You'll find the "Synchronise Stereotype" menu option.  Follow the instructions.

We use this fairly frequently as our Modelling Environment evolves.

The first time you use it it will add any missing tagged values (properties) to the identified objects.  Naturally, once you've done that, if you repeat the process immediately, NO objects should be updated.

HTH,
Paolo

Thank you very much. The "Right-click->synchronise stereotype" did the job. Also thank all for your response.
