This option is still in the Quick Document settings, but it shold hve been removed.
Stopping using this was deliberate, because:
(1) so few people use instances in their modelling, I’m gradually removing support for specific instance types: everything is just ‘Object’, as it is in EA.
(2) this was forst to go, just because formatting an instance of element in the same way as its classifier is a bit strange. Sure, the instance gets a Profile, but why would we print the classifier and its instances the same way? The instances have actual values of the attributes of the classifier, in the Run State Variables, so they shold look very different. This was just a short-cut to providing diffeent profiles for different kinds of ‘object’.
Excessive flexibility.
