Suggestions and Requests / Individual Attribute/Operation Visibility

« on: January 12, 2005, 05:27:00 am »

Visibility at the individual attribute/operation level would be nice to have.  Often times you don't want to show all of the public operations or all of the private attributes but you really want to show some of them in the context of the diagram.

To elaborate a bit more on the feature visibility/source control issue - a teamate is working in another package (under source control) and as I am a client to the classes he is creating I dragged one of his classes onto my class diagram.  Its a pretty big class and I don't want to see all of his attributes and operations.  I can't right click it and hide them since I don't have it checked out and if I do it from the main Diagram | Properties... I have to hide all of mine as well which I don't want to do.

Note that when your model is under source control there are some peculiarities when changing visibilities.

For example, if working under a package that is checked out I drag a class onto the class diagram that is not checked out and make it a base class.  If I try to change the base class feature visibilities by right clicking the class I cannot change the visibilities as the context menu selections are grayed out.  If I go through the Diagram | Properties… main menu I can change the base class feature visibilities.
