Symptom
- You have a PDM with an Extension containing several Stereotype definitions for Tables.
- Each of the stereotypes has a Custom Symbol with a specific Fill color.
- Many tables in the model have one of these stereotypes.
- The PDM has been maintained with PowerDesigner 16.1.0.3701.
- Now when you open the model with PowerDesigner 16.5.3.4313, either by updating a repository and checking out the model, or by saving a *.pdm file with 16.1 and then opening the same file with 16.5, then PD 16.5 does not properly recognize the stereotype definitions.
- The properties dialog of the Extension shows all the stereotypes in its left-hand overview field but it does not show any properties of each sterotype in its right-hand details field, nor does it show anything for the custom symbol.
