Multiple stereotypes interfere with quicklink

[Andrew Warner]

Hi all,
I have an element with two stereotypes applied, «business concept» and «organisation role».

Each works fine with the quicklink mechanism except when they are applied together.

If I have both stereotypes applied to an element only the quicklink entries attached to the one appearing in the main properties dialogue are visible.

So, if the properties dialogue for the element shows «business concept» I won't see the entries allowed for «organisation role» and vice versa. Even though the class shows «business concept, organisation role» on the diagram.

Cheers,
Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

QuickLink only seems to apply to the primary stereotype.

All stereotypes are created equal, but some are more equal than others.

Thanks Paolo,
I might need to take a different approach then.

Cheers,

Andrew, it should be quite easy to fix, please submit a bug report. Thanks.

[Andrew Warner]

Thanks KP,
will do.

Cheers,
Andrew.
P.S.
I should have done this earlier but I haven't organised to register yet. I'll need to chase the background registration info from the part of our organisation responsible. I promise to get onto it asap.

Bug report duly raised and Sparx Systems have kindly agreed to fix it.

Cheers,
Andrew.
