Stereotype shape
« on: September 16, 2014, 09:11:40 pm »
How do I get a "traditional" representation of a stereotype on a diagram, avoiding the EA-style using the blue parentheses icon?

Perhaps its a reference to << and >>

as in <<stereotype>>

The [size=16]<[/size][size=14]< >[/size][size=16]>[/size][/b] icon is what is is displayed in the corner of an element when the element's stereotype is actually <<stereotype>> rather than something like <<table>> or <<metaclass>>. Have a look at the Stereotype item in the Profile diagram toolbox pages.
