PM33026: Swimlane becomes same model element as already existing swimlane.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A problem is observed when creating and naming swimlanes on an
  activity that appears as activity diagram swimlanes
  disappearing.
  If the name of a newly created swimlane matches the name of a
  swimlane name in another activity diagram, the swimlane on the
  new activity becomes the same model element as a swimlane on the
  another activity.
  This may or may not happen depending on the sequence of events
  one uses while creating and naming the swimlane.  Therefore the
  tool behavior is not consistent.
  
  Sharing swimlanes across activities is not compliant with UML
  and SysML specification.
  
  This is a serious problem since it can cause corruption and
  losing behavior specification on multiple diagrams unknowingly
  to the modeler.
