Can I add a full stop / period character to a model element name?

Troubleshooting


Problem

In IBM Rational Rhapsody, you want to add a "." character to a model element name, for example: "My.Class"

Symptom

When you rename a model element to include a "." character, you see an error message such as "Name My.Class is illegal for element of type Class"
