Background 
Class Diagrams show the static structure of the model.
Naming Standards
Class Diagram names should begin with an upper case letter. The naming standards for
specific class diagrams are defined for their containing model items (either Packages or
Use Case Realizations).
Documentation
Where necessary the purpose of the diagram can be described in its documentation field.
This is optional for standard diagrams but mandatory for any additional (non-standard)
class diagrams added to packages or use case realizations.
Documentation in Rose
Although diagrams do not have a specification they do have a documentation field. If
you select the diagram in the Browser then you will see the diagram's documentation in the
documentation field. This can be edited directly in the documentation field. |
