Hello there....
In the UML standard there are three ways you can stereotype an "object" (class,
package, association,...), as all of you I'm sure already knows.
1) Use guillemets such as <<machine>>
2) Use a small icon inside as existing UML object
3) Use only the icon
An Actor in a good example for this. It is a "class" stereotype and it is shown
in Rose as the option 3) I've
listed. But if you change the Stereotype display property you can display it as
1) and 2).
Now, in Rose it is ALWAYS possible to stereotype any kind of object as 1), so
you can stereotype the Activity as well.
When you try to stereotype objects as 2) and 3), you need to build an Image as a
vector image, store it in a file, and then configure the proper *.ini rose file
(i.e. defualtStereotype.ini).
The problem is that you cannot stereotype everything in this way, an ACTIVITY
and a STATE
are example of UML object that can be stereotype only as option 1) and not as
option 2) and 3).
I wish it would be possible....
Max.

Is that true that "Activity and State Item are the only object that cannot
be stereotyped in Rational Rose."

Hollo there,
the Activity and State Item are the only object that cannot be stereotyped
in
Rational Rose.
I don't know why Rational didn't put this feature in their suit...
My question to Rational team is this:
Are you planning to add the stereotyped Item to be able to be used in the
stereotyped.ini files ?

Subject: (ROSE) Adding Activity Stereotype
Hi,
In my Activity Diagram, I'm trying to distinguish some activities from
other. I believe obvious choice would be assigning them different
stereotypes.
Now to make it visually clear, I want the color of activity rectangle to be
changed to some other color, as soon as I change the stereotype of that
activity.
I tried adding something like following in defaultstereotypes.ini
Activity: Database Activity
[Activity:Database Activity]
Item=Activity
Stereotype= Database Activity
FillColor=??????
But it did not work. Can some one give me inputs on this?
Thanks,
Vipul
