You can specify your own custom Diagram Banners by creating Diagram Banner configurations; thus, you can specify the display position (Header/Footer/Both) for specific markings based on their categories and/or have them displayed on separate banners.

Important

Before creating Diagram Banner configurations, make sure to review the information provided on the Specifying Diagram Banners page.

  1. Create a new package (e.g. 'Diagram Banner Configuration').

  2. Inside the package, create a Class diagram.

    If you cannot see the Class diagram, make sure the Expert mode is enabled.

  3. In the Diagram palette of the Class diagram, click the Class icon and then click on the diagram pane. A Class element symbol is created.
  4. Name the Class element (e.g. 'Diagram Banner Customization').
  5. Right-click the Class element. In the shortcut menu, click Stereotype > select «bannerConfiguration» from the menu, and click Apply.
