Doug – I don’t quite follow what you’re asking for here.
When you say the information is ‘lost’ do you mean it doesn’t appear in the Profile list ?
As for the Add Element function, I have thought about using an existing element type/stereotype as a kind of template for the new one. Is that what you mean?
So, if I have an element Wibble, with an Profile forun-stereotyped and <>Wibbels, , and I want to create Profile for <>Wibble, eaDocX would offer me the chance to base the <>Wibble on the format of the un-stereotyped Wibble, or on the <>Wibble.
Is this what you mean ?
