Framework Matrix Properties

Framework architects can modify a framework matrix properties from its property sheet by enabling the Framework Design Mode, and double-clicking the framework matrix top-left corner.

For more information on enabling the Framework Design Mode, see Designing Framework Matrices and Diagrams.

The General tab contains the following properties:
Property Description

Name/Code/Comment

Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field.

Stereotype

Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file.
