copied!<p>After doing some research, here's what I found:</p> <ul> <li>There is no GUI option to toggle the visibility of the <code>direction</code> indicator</li> <li>A workaround would be to create a new <code>master</code> (copying the original <code>class</code> master), and tweak it to change the display of <code>Operations</code> shape.</li> <li>However, there is no option in the <code>Shapesheet</code> window to do that.</li> <li>The next thing to try would be manipulate it via code. </li> <li>After fiddling around, I couldn't find any public properties that allowed you to set that.</li> <li>I stumbled upon this <a href="http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/visiogeneral/thread/72ad591e-0914-40fb-b718-0ddc2125f250/">technet forum post</a> which confirmed my suspicion (that the UML addon lacked a good set of APIs).</li> </ul> <p>So I guess the short answer is - No. There is no automatic way of doing that in Visio 2007/2010.</p> <p>There are other tools that let you control this, such as: </p> <ul> <li>Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect <a href="http://www.sparxsystems.com/resources/uml2_tutorial/uml2_classdiagram.html">(Class Diagrams)</a></li> <li>IBM's Rational Software Architect <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtnlhelp/v6r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.xtools.modeler.doc/topics/cparam.html">(Showing or hiding parameters)</a> </li> </ul> <p>If you can switch tools, I would recommend Enterprise Architect. It has allows C# code generation (not sure about IBM) and has Visual Studio integration as well.</p> <p>Hope ths helps!</p>
