Build Identifier: Modeling Tools Indygo with Papyrus 0.8

When using drag and drop in class diagram all chill elements are ommited (When I drag class all class properties should be also "dragged" into diagram. 
This is bug or feature? There is also problem with displaying stereotypes for dragged elements.

Reproducible: Always

Sorry for the late response: this is a feature, since the user may not want to add all child elements to the diagram. Current usability scenario is to drag an element to a diagram and then fill it with contents via "F4" (Show/Hide contents).

It is arguable however that this should be configurable, e.g. by adding a configuration option to open the show/hide dialog immediately after a drop. Changed severity to enhancement.
