Basically like adding anything to a diagram. You create a note element with the desired content and create a diagramobjects element containing the diagram id and the position.

Changing notes is also simple by retrieving it from the elements, make changes and update it.

Since, there were no help from Sparx team, I have found the solution for adding diagram info note & diagram not with GUID and paperclip style to the diagram canvas:

Code: [Select]

def _addDiagramNotes( self, aDiagramNode: CDispatch ):
      pck = self._engine.getRepo().getPackageByID( aDiagramNode.packageID )
      text = pck.elements.addNew( "", "Text" )
      text.Subtype = 18
      text.Update()
      # coord. on diagram
      obj = aDiagramNode.diagramObjects.addNew( "l=10;r=110;t=-20;b=-80", "" )
      obj.elementID = text.elementId
      obj.Update()
      self._engine.getRepo().reloadDiagram( aDiagramNode.diagramID )
      LOGGER.info( "Added TextInfo to Diagram" )

   def _addDiagramGUIDNote( self, aDiagramNode: CDispatch ):
      pck = self._engine.getRepo().getPackageByID( aDiagramNode.packageID )
      note = pck.elements.addNew( "", "Note" )
      note.Notes = aDiagramNode.DiagramGUID
      note.StyleEx = "NS=5"
      note.Update()
      # coord. on diagram
      obj = aDiagramNode.diagramObjects.addNew( "l=10;r=250;t=-100;b=-155;DUID=A15050D3", "" )
      obj.elementID = note.elementId
      obj.Update()
      self._engine.getRepo().reloadDiagram( aDiagramNode.diagramID )
      LOGGER.info( "Added Notes GUID to Diagram" )
