Creating Attributes

You can create an attribute on a modeling element in either of two places.

To create a new attribute from the Projects window:

  1. Expand the project and model nodes, and find the diagram element to which you want to add an attribute.
  2. Right-click the element and choose New > Attribute.
    The IDE adds a new unnamed attribute under the element's node.

To create a new attribute from the Diagram editor:

  1. Open the diagram in the Diagram editor.
  2. Right-click a diagram element in the Attributes section, and choose Create Attribute.
    In the element's Attributes section, UML Modeling adds a new unnamed attribute and opens an editable name field.
  3. Click in the name field, type the new attribute name, and then do one of the following: UML Modeling displays the attribute in the element's Attributes section.
