11	9	Comments below:
12	10	General comment	Slow response from the server for Papyrus additional components, SysML1.4	Gert
13	11	General comment	Slow response when drag and drop from browser to diagram	Gert
14	12	Element creation configuration	-When creating a SysML Model element, the name is not editable until after creation (and then by use of Rename menu option)	Thomas Karlkvist	http://eclip.se/476629
15	13	Activity	Set the initial size of the activrty to something larger	Patrik
16	14	Activity	Arange all is enabled while nothing is selected but does nothing	Patrik
17	15	Sequence	It is hard to understand how to draw sequence diagrams. SysML works worse than "normal" sequence diagrams?	Per
18	16	Sequence	Drawing a new message between two life-line in a sequence diagram shows a dialog that only shows a dialog with no choices and OK disabled "Create New Message" This seems to be an issue when the receiving life-line is a block in SysML. SysML specific?	Per
19	17	Block Definition, general	clicking on a line requires high precision would be easier if less precision was needed to snap to the line	Gert
20	18	Activity	Moving a pin on an action will place it partly inside the action ...sometimes	Patrik
21	19	Activity	Would like to display compartment of expression after the language definition	Jianlin
22	20	General comment	Would it be possible to use notes in one diagram?	Jianlin
23	21	Activity	Would it be possible to generate sequence diagram from an activity diagram	Jianlin
24	22	General comment	when draw a new diagram and drag existing elements into the diagram, relationships by default unvisible. would it be better to have "visible" by default?	Jianlin
25	23	State machine	would be possible to have a pop-up window to ask if an automatic statemachine diagram wanted when adding one state machine?	Jianlin
26	24	General comment	problems migrating a SysML-model from Mars, SysML1.1 to Papyrus 2.0, SysML1.4	Gert
27	25		a description text field should be immediately available under the properties for tthe element
28	26	General comment	double click opens a dialog for hyperlink, why?
29	27	General comment	plus sign on pointer stays after creating new connector
30	28	General comment	On any window, a (?) popup should be available for explaining the purpose of a field to provide information/configuration	Thomas Karlkvist
31	29	Use Case diagram	There is no obvious way to provide a detailed "Description" of a Use Case, which should best be separated from an object of type Comment. Also, to add attributes and activity diagrams etc is not intuitive.	Thomas Karlkvist
32	30	General comment	Not possible to identify model element type in properties dialog.	Johan Bredin
33	31	General comment	Not possbile to identify diagram type in diagram view.	Johan Bredin
34	32	State machine	Need to be simpler to add events/signals to state transitions (too many clicks and dialogs). The state diagram is not profiled towards the specific FSM approach a user may want to use (i.e. Mealy/Moore FSM, hierarchical/non-hierarchical). The three levels of indirection Trigger->Signal->Event is sometimes overkill. The property tab Rulers and Grids has nothing to do with modelling and should therefore be moved elsewhere (e.g. to window menu). The same can be said for the tab Style. The State diag shows the transition Signals and not the Event (which I would expect). Signals and events can be placed at various places in a package. They ought to be associated more directly with the FSM in which they are used. Adding a comment to a state, using the Properties tab, is a bit of a click fest. Comments can also be added using the palette. This is a different kind of comment. How many different ways of adding comments are needed?	Nils Paulsson
35	33	Sequence	When a rename life-line operation is started e.g. by pressing F2 when focused, I expect the ECS-button to abort the edit and revert changes to the name.	John Törnblom
36	34	General comment	To many properties tabs and unclear definitions. Hard from a usage point of view	Jonas Andersson
37	35	General comment	The tool tips are generally not very informative, e.g. the palette says Create <whatever>. Displaying semantics would be alot more informative	John Törnblom
38	36	Sequence	I was unable to use Copy and Paste (Ctrl-C, Ctl-V) on time-lines	John Törnblom
39			Rename of model elements should be possible with one click.	Johan Bredin, Niklas von Schéele
40			Not possible to identify model element type in properties dialog.	Johan Bredin, Niklas von Schéele
41			Not possbile to identify diagram type in diagram view.	Johan Bredin, Niklas von Schéele
42			The presentation of stereotype and name of an edge (relation) is not kept together when the edge is moved on the diagram (either by moving the edge itself or moving any of its related elements).	Mikael Relbe
43			The diagram looks "cluttered up" after a while.	Mikael Relbe
44			The element icon in the name compartment of a requirement element on a diagram looks like a class icon and not like the requirement icon I have seen used elsewhere (cf. EA).	Mikael Relbe
