The following attributes can be applied to stereotypes in UML Profiles:

Attribute

Meaning

icon

Contains the path to a bitmap file to be used as the Project Browser icon for all elements  other than Package, with the given stereotype. The bitmap must be 16x16 pixels. For a transparent background, use light grey - RGB(192,192,192).

_image

  • auto
  • custom
  • bezier
  • treeH (horizontal)
  • treeV (vertical)
  • treeLH (lateral horizontal)
  • treeLV (lateral vertical).

_metatype

Used for defining stereotypes as metatypes.

_sizeY

Initial height of the element, in pixels at 100% zoom.

_sizeX

Initial width of the element, in pixels at 100% zoom.

_strictness

Used for restricting application of multiple stereotypes.

_Runstate

If set to 1, switches on the Hide Object Runstate in current diagram setting.

_SourceAggregation

Used to set the aggregation type at the end of a connector; do not set both _SourceAggregation and _TargetAggregation.

Set to 1 for shared, 2 for composite.

_SourceMultiplicity

Used to set the multiplicity of the source element, such as 1..* or 0..1.

_SourceNavigability

If the connector is non-navigable, set this attribute to Non-Navigable. For other values, set the direction attribute.

_Tag

If set to 1, switches on the Show Element Compartments: Tags setting.

_TagInh

If set to 1, switches on the Show Element Compartments: Inherited Tags setting.

_TargetAggregation

Used to set the aggregation type at the end of a connector; do not set both _SourceAggregation and _TargetAggregation.

Set to 1 for shared, 2 for composite.

_TargetMultiplicity

Used to set the multiplicity of the target element, such as 1..* or 0..1.

_TargetNavigability

If the connector is non-navigable, set this attribute to Non-Navigable. For other values, set the direction attribute.
