Tag sorting
« on: March 13, 2020, 07:09:03 pm »
Hey there,


I've got a pair of stereotypes defined in a profile and distributed with an MDG Technology.
The two stereotypes are specializations of an abstract stereotype which holds all my tagged values. So nothing is added in the specializations, other than the shape script.

There are no tag groups or groupings, but I have manually reordered the stereotype attributes in the profile model, just for convenience when maintaining the profile.
But I now notice that the attribute order is used by EA to sort the tags in an element which has my stereotype -- but only in the properties window, not in the properties dialog.

Weird, right? Certainly not koncistent.

This is 15.0.1512. Anyone know if it's been fixed in 15.1?

My theories are always correct, just apply them to the right reality.

Just guessing:
Maybe it helps to sort the "tags" in project browser of the MDG model, when the tags still are "just" attributes, before the MDG is generated.

This at least helps to keep desired sorting of stereotypes when used in a toolbox.
