What do you mean by "cannot stereotype diagrams"?

I have now 3 profiles, including 1 for toolboxes and another for diagram extensions, and have hit the 1st problem I cannot seem to solve, once the profile is imported I cannot stereotype diagrams. I can stereotype anything else, classes, relationships and packages but not diagrams. Am I missing something?

You can't "stereotype" diagrams, that term doesn't apply. You should be able to see your diagrams in their own section in the New Diagram dialog -- provided you have correctly referenced / imported the MDG Technology.

You might want to have another look at your «profile» packages. One with the UML profile and one with the diagram extensions sounds right, but each toolbox should have its own «profile» package. Unless of course you're confusing "toolbox" and "toolbox page".

Uhm. There's a stereotype property for diagrams.

Yes, but it has no meaning. The UML concept of a stereotype does not apply to diagrams, and what's been implemented in EA looks more like a mistake than anything else. It is a free-text field which is not related to the diagram's type or to anything else.

You can enter a value in the diagram properties dialog, and pull it out again in a documentation template, but that's it. It's not related to what's in an MDG Technology, and you can't "apply" your custom diagram type as a stereotype, is my point.
