v15.1 – Suppress Type icon

[Paolo F Cantoni]

EA has a diagram property [  ] Use Stereotype Icons - when you unmark this, some "icons" remain stubbornly visible.  For example, the icon for a UML Activity.  They "play havoc" with shapescripts that wish to place their own decoration in the same place.

This has irritated me (and I suspect many) for a decade!  Anyway, yesterday during a "daydreaming moment" - when my mind was free to make arbitrary associations - I realised that they aren't "Stereotype" icons, but Type icons.  No wonder they weren't being suppressed!

So can we please have an additional property [  ] Use Type Icons to allow these to be managed more effectively?  Both at the Repository and Diagram level?
