Full quote Grouped elements are the annotated elements of the comment to which the stereotype is applied. This has several implications: Next snippet Element groups do not own their elements and thus an element can participate in an unlimited number of groups. Related snippets The ElementGroup stereotype provides a lightweight mechanism for grouping various and possibly heterogeneous model elements by extending the capability of comments to refer to multiple annotated elements. The semantics of ElementGroup is modeler-defined. In particular, the body text is not restricted. It can describe the grouped elements as well as elements or values related to the grouped elements. Related snippets (backlinks) Element groups do not own their elements and thus an element can participate in an unlimited number of groups. The elements in a group are identified by the modeler, as opposed to being the result of a query, as in views. Element groups can be members of other element groups, but this does not imply that members of the first are members of the second. Visit also Visit also (backlinks) Flags
