Thanks.  I agree that the icon in Kepler is not as good as the Stop sign in Ptolemy.

I'm not sure how the Stop icon would get special xml in Kepler.

A side issue here is that the name of the instance is not displayed.  I would expect to see Stop1 and Stop2.

I updated the bug report.

BTW, the reason for this is that the icon for the Stop actor in Ptolemy says it all.
Unfortunately, the icon in Kepler says nothing about what the actor does.
The constructor for the Stop actor includes this:

        // Hide the name because the name is in the icon.
        _hideName = new SingletonParameter(this, "_hideName");
        _hideName.setToken(BooleanToken.TRUE);
        _hideName.setVisibility(Settable.EXPERT);

I suggest that in the Kepler library, the Stop actor should include something like:

   <property name="_hideName" value="false"/>

Hi Kenneth,
Thanks, I created a bug for this, see  https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/6165

Below are two Ramp actors and two Stop actors that have been dragged in to the devel version of Kepler.

The names of instances of the Stop actor do not display in Mac OSX.  Let me know if you need more info.
