Copy default shape of block to generated parts

[Mercurius]

Hello All,

I would like that a defined default image or shape of a block (class) is also automatically applied to the parts (objects) generated from that block. Is that possible?

I have done the following:

• Defined a new stereotype (extending "class", generalizing "SysML1.4::block", with an indivdual ShapeScript)
• Created and activated an MDG including this stereotype
• Build a BlockDefinitionDiagram with a block of the new type (-> The Shape appears as desired.)
• Connected the block via a "part association" to a parent block (-> The "part"/"object" is generated as desired.)
• Added an internal block diagram (IBD) of the parent block

Now the Part in the IBD appears in the standard way. But I would like to see the shape defined for the original block/class.

Can anybody help? Thanks in advance.

You will need to define a stereotype that extends Part that also has a shape script. Also set the _instanceType of the Class stereotype to the Part stereotype (search help for 'instanceType' for details)

Cool. It worked. Thank you a lot, KP.
