Stereotype Settings

Return to Introduction  Previous page  Next page

Enterprise Architect has an extensive set of Standard Element Stereotypes. Using the Stereotypes tab of the UML Types dialog, a Technical Developer can also customize the stereotypes for your project by adding, modifying and deleting them.

Stereotypes can be modified to make use of metafiles (image files) or customized colors, or to make use of the Enterprise Architect Shape Scripts to make new element shapes to determine the shape and dimensions of the element.

To display the Stereotypes tab, select the Settings | UML menu option.  The UML Types dialog displays, showing the Stereotypes tab.
