I create a profile for a new <<D365>> Class Stereotype. I defined some custome Tag values. That all worked. Now, I updated that profile to add some new Tag values and to delete an old one. I've updated the profile into the resources. Now, how do I apply this update to all affected elements? I thought there was a simple command to refresh or update all or something like that.

Open the Toolbox. Show the stereotype. Context menu: Synch stereotype.

Nice! Many thanks. Could I request please that when a dialog box says "Synchronize Stereotype" that it concludes with a completion or failure message? Just saying...good UI practice.

Send in a feature reqeust

In case you want this to be automated, I have a vbscript that does the same automatically:
