2 Name the diagram.
3 In the dialog box, specify the Package that the diagram belongs to, and the Class that the State model is describing.
4 Specify that the diagram is of stereotype SOV-04b Service State Model by performing the following steps:
Open the Properties dialog box for the diagram. Right-click an empty area of the diagram workspace; then click Diagram Properties.
In the Stereotype property list, select SOV-04b Service State Model.
Save the diagram and refresh the Explorer browser.
The stereotype <<SOV-04b Service State Model>> is displayed in front of the diagram name in the Explorer.
