MDG Techno: Add Custom Compartments to Element - BUG?!

[Mesple]

Hi all,

I tried to write a shape script containing a "custom compartment" named "Toto" to display the name of child elements.

"
shape ChildElement
{
   SetCompartmentName("Toto");
   AppendCompartmentText("#NAME#");
}
"
is-it right?

and then, as mentioned in the help (https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/14.0/modeling_tools/add_custom_compartments_to_ele.html), I've attached a linked Note to manage the compartment visibility (Method 2) but my compartment named "Toto" doesn't appear in the "Feature type" list? 
Why? Any idea?

Thanks a lot
Olivier

Just gave it a try. It does show up for me. The only thing I can think of is that you need to have the compartment show up before it will be available as a feature type. That means you have to have at least one child that isn't on the diagram.

This is definitely a requirement (IIRC).
