I can't find a way (searching through MagicDraw and its doc as well as Goolge) to make MagicDraw show an Interface as it is defined in UML with the stereotype notation << interface >> instead of just coloring it green and drawing a circle in the right corner.

Could someone give me a hint on how to display interfaces like that in MagicDraw please.

PS: does MagicDraw 16.8 have a default way how to draw .Net (C#) properties?

  • in case I made it not clear - the <> should be shown in the diagram under the name of the interface – Holly Oct 16 '12 at 12:01

I know this is a very old question, but in case anyone else wants to know the answer (as it was my case when I arrived to this post):

  1. In the Containment window, right-click on the Data folder and select New Element -> Stereotype.

  2. In the new element << >> that appears under the Data folder, rename it Interface.

  3. In the main UML window, right-click on your own interface symbol and select Stereotype -> Interface [Element] (this last item in the Stereotype list appears when you create it following the steps above).

This was tested in MagicDraw version 16.

In theory you should be able to right click the interface symbol and change "symbol properties"/show sterotypes as: text. It might actually be necessary to create the sterotype "interface". I tried this out in Magicdraw 17.0 and it does not work as expected. A bug report to NoMagic might be in order.
