Constraint dialog box

Constraints

A constraint expresses a semantic restriction on an element or a set of elements being modeled. A constraint appears in the form of more or less formal text, which can be interpreted by a programming language.

The "Constraint" dialog box contains four tabs - "Properties", "Notes", "Tagged values" and "Stereotypes". For information on these standard dialog box tabs, please see "Standard dialog box tabs".
