Issue 18502: Don't use the optional notation for Pins with Allocation (sysml-rtf) Source: PTC (Mr. Phillip Astle, nobody) Nature: Enhancement Severity: Significant Summary: Figure C.35 uses the optional notation for Pins (i.e. ->[]-> instead of []->[]). The allocation callout note is anchored to the object node symbol which makes it ambiguous as to which dictionary item(s) are being allocated. It could be one of the following: + the origin and destination pins + the object flow + the common type of the pins Since it's unclear what is being allocated, it would make more sense to show the Pins on the diagram and link the callout note to the relevant item(s) (I believe it's supposed to go to the ObjectFlow).
