After updating the customization element specification, you must either reuse the DSL Customization profile in the model or reopen the model.
Note The Help ID property is connected to the documentation.server path variable, the default value of whichis https://docs.nomagic.com. The opened link is constructed in this way: '<documentation.server value> + /display/MD<modeling_tool_version>/ + <help ID text>'.
Accessing such a link via F1 or Help buttons opens the specified documentation page.
If an element represents two or more DSL elements, the first DSL element’s help topic ID will be taken.
If the DSL type customization does not have the Help ID property defined, the help topic ID derives from the more general stereotype customization (ancestor) of the Help ID property. If there is no ancestor, the metaclass help opens.
