Several element types provide an alternate rectangle notation, as allowed by UML. This is set by right-clicking the element, and from the context menu choosing Advanced | Use Rectangle Notation.
In rectangle notation elements may provide a glyph or show a stereotype to indicate their 'true' nature.
However, the context menu itself does not provide any visual cue to the current notation of the element. If you go through the same sequence you once again see Use Rectangle Notation as an option, but choosing this option reverts back to the original notation.
There should be either: different menu item text when the element is already in rectangle notation, or an indicator (check mark) to the left of the menu option to show that rectangle notation is active.

PS: This has been raised before, in an earlier release of EA. Since the problem has now made it into a new version of EA I am raising it again, and filing a new bug report.

[Edit] Some vertexes. like actors, DO swtich menu items, but as usual, it's inconsistent...

Actually, it was with respect to actors that I first raised this one.
