Title: Override highlighting
Post by: sargasso on May 30, 2004, 06:18:38 pm
Is there a way of making overrides more visible in the class elements? [size=10]
-
--------------------------------
-
|
classb
|
|
ClassA
|
|
=================
|
|
<prop> +PropX():bool
|
-
--------------------------------
-
[/size]
PropX overrides the same operation in classb.
Surely ??? there is some way in UML of making this fact visible in the diagram.

I don't think that the UML-spec mentions how this should be visualized. However, its a good idea to see at a first glance, which operations are overriden an which are introduced new. What do you think of using a bold font for overriden ops? Another option could be a small icon which indicates that fact. Maybe this is a nice feature for a next version ???

It's not exactly that what you need, but may be it helps to set the operation as virtual, so that it will be italicized.
