Error description

  • In IBM Rational Software Architect, it is not possible to
    display the stereotype/keyword on an extension point in the
    extension point compartment list of a use case in a diagram.
    
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Add a use case to a use-case diagram
    2. Add an extension point to the use case
    3. Set the Keywords property of the extension point to some
    non-empty string
    4. Select the use case in the diagram and in the context menu
    select 'Filter-?Stereotypes and Visibility Style-?Compartment
    Stereotype: Text'
    Expected Result: Keywords are visible on the extension point on
    the use case diagram
    Actual Result: No keywords are visible for the extension point
    in the diagram
    
    There is no workaround to this problem.
