UML Subsystem Properties dialog box (Subsystem category)

Name

Type a name for the subsystem.

Full Path

The UML Model Diagram template automatically provides full information about the element's path in the system model hierarchy. You can't edit this information but if you move elements the path automatically updates.

Stereotype

Choose the stereotype you want from the drop-down list. If a stereotype you want to use isn't listed, you can add a new stereotype or edit an existing one by clicking Stereotypes on the UML menu.

Visibility

Choose the type of visibility (public, private, or protected) that applies to the subsystem.

IsRoot

Select to indicate that the subsystem can't have ancestors.

IsLeaf

Select to indicate that the subsystem can't have descendants.

IsAbstract

Select to indicate that the subsystem is abstract and that no instances can be created for the subsystem.

IsInstantiable

Select if the instances of the model elements within the subsystem form an implicit composition that can be treated as a subsystem instance.

Documentation

Type any documentation you want to add to the element as a tagged value. When you select the shape or icon representing the element, the documentation you type here also appears in the Documentation window.
