Show additional information of an attribute of a class

[Viking]

Hi,

I would like to show additional information of an attribute of an UML class. Default is that the class shows its attributes with formats and its methods.

The best way would be to use and show aliases in addition. Unfortunately the alias “replaces” the name of the attribute. So I tried tagged value, but I can only show the tagged value of a class. Another possibility would be to use the attribute name plus the alias name as alias and show the alias. But than I would have redundant information.

Is there a way to show additional information of an attribute (e.g. attribute name plus alias)?

Many thanks, V.

Hi Viking

Please enable Alias and Name in the Alias usage section of Diagram -> Behaviour tab in preferences.




and in the diagram setting please enable Use Alias if Available in Diagram -> Appearance





You will get both name and alias displayed .

Thank you very much, Arshad. This works.

Unfortunately I get only Alias + Attribut Name instead of Attribut Name + Alias. For my opinion the alias shoud be at the second place.

Just for your Information: I cannot see the pictures, uploaded by you.

Do you also have a solution for this: "Unfortunately I get only Alias + Attribut Name instead of Attribut Name + Alias. For my opinion the alias shoud be at the second place." ?

I think that's a feature request to Sparx, AFAIK there aren't any options to reverse that.
