hide instance type
« on: February 19, 2010, 03:15:41 am »
Hi,

I've created an instance of an object and the diagram shows "instance:type". I want to hide the :type-part so that the diagram only shows "instance". Any ideas how I do this, anyone?

Andreas,

I don't think you can.

Hi Andreas,

I think I've also asked for this in the past.  Submit a formal feature request.

Sometimes it is useful (especially on end-user diagrams) to hide the classifier type.

A feature request it is then. The way I see it it's a must have, if you're going to talk to end-users.

Thanks for your replies.
