To create a new tagged value, do one of the following
- In the element Specification window, Tags property group, select an available tag definition and click the Create Value button.
- In the Containment tree, select an element and drag it to the Specification window tag value area.
To create default tag values
- In the stereotype's Specification window, expand the Tag Definitions property group and select the tag definition.
- Assign a value for the Default Value property.
- Create an element and assign a stereotype for this element. The element will have tags with assigned default values.
MagicDraw allows for setting default tag values to a tag with an empty value. This functionality is needed when a stereotype is already assigned to an element and a new mandatory tag definition with a default value is created for the stereotype. After creating such a tag definition, the model elements that have the modified stereotype applied will have the newly created tags unset.
To set default values instead of empty values
- In the main menu, select Tools > Set Empty Tags to Defaults. The Select Package dialog opens.
Select the scope of elements to which you want to set the default tag values.
- In the opened dialog, click Yes. Now, the element with stereotype tags has been assigned default values.
The following conditions are required to set the default tag values
- The element should have an assigned stereotype with a specified default value property.
- The tag definition, to which you want to assign a default value, should contain no value.
