Learn how to best use the Cameo tools for Model-Based Systems Engineering with Systems Modeling Language v2 (SysML®) from the experts:

TIP: SysMLv2: Cameo: PREFER use explicit attribute or item kind when redefining (even if a bit tedious in code). Otherwise you can't list them compactly in compartments as Cameo does not have a compartment for basic refs (showing Symbols takes up space)!

Geometry Examples: SimpleQuadcopter.sysml [WIP: ATTEMPTED: Possible sample code inconsistencies]

Webel Best Practice: SysMLv2: Cameo: TIP: Show EITHER a specialization relationship from a symbol OR show the specialization in the symbol header using Display Styles -> Show Specialization. Prefer NOT show both modes in one View.

Webel Best Practice: SysMLv2: STRONGLY recommend black on white style with colours (best only for symbol outlines) only used for special highlighting. [READ FOR INSTRUCTIONS for b/w in Cameo SysMLv2]

Cameo SysMLv2 Plugin: LIMITATION: Does not have a compartment for basic refs (no kind) so one has to use symbols, which takes up some modelling real estate - even when there's no need to show their structured contents or relationships from them!

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: macOS Ventura to Sequoia: Sometimes Cameo application is unresponsive after screen saver on for a while, have to kill and restart

ISSUE[MAYBE]: Cameo 2026xHF2: SysMLv2 Plugin: Using import without a visibility indicator fails in the textual representation editor (but should be supported with default private according to _SOME_ SysML2.0 spec examples)

ISSUE: Cameo 2026xHF2: SysMLv2 Plugin: HF2 has broken representation of Metadata and metadata feature values on annotated element symbols (worked fine in Cameo 2026x before the HF2 upgrade)

ISSUE: Cameo SysMLv2 Plugin (2026xHF2): mac OS 15.7.5 Sequoia: Sometimes hangs showing 'Finalising Textual Editor' on wake after machine sleeps. Have to kill Cameo and rerun (mostly but not always recovers project)

CHALLENGE: Cameo SysMLv2 Plugin (2026xHF2): : FeatureValue.value representation in a ColumnByExpressionView does not seem to work when the feature value of an attribute has units: Example length = 1.2 [m]

Cameo SysMLv2 Plugin: TRACKER: Progress towards more GUI support for customised query view tables (and less need for customisation using fiddly textual representation code)

GOTCHA: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Evaluation Plugin: DISABLE/CLEAR Model Evaluation mode before synchronising the project model with the textual representation editor or it will write numerical values into attribute names in the textual representation!

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: macOS Ventura: On project recovery after crash (or kill) the application of styles does not work. WORKAROUND: Save recovered project and restart Cameo.

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: macOS Ventura to Sequoia: Sometimes hangs on 'Textual Editor operations finalizing...'

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: "Permits" application of metadata restricted via annotatedElement subsetting to any element (maybe a planned validation engine will catch it).

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: Does not seem to support indication of "tagging" metadata with no features on element symbols (which if so undermines half the point of using "tagging" metadata). WORKAROUND: Use SemanticMetadata #MyMeta (better anyway)

GOTCHA: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: A "transition" from an empty entry entry is interpreted (consistently) as a succession not a transition (LIKELY A SPEC EXAMPLES ISSUE). WORKAROUND: Use start:stateAction

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x/HF2: SysMLv2 Plugin: AcceptAction: The flow direction indicator of the payload parameter is BACKWARDS (in instead of out) and inconsistent when connected to a downstream consumer!

NEWS: Webel announces a new Workshop Seminar course for MBSE with Systems Model Language (SysML) v2 and the Cameo SysMLv2 Plugin!

ISSUE: LIMITATION: Cameo 2026x/HF2: SysMLv2 Evaluation Plugin does not seem to evaluate across binding connectors between attributes (yet)

ISSUE: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Plugin: macOS Ventura to Sequoia: Crashes a lot inexplicably and does not always recover projects from autosave [WORKAROUND: Save manually often!]

ISSUE: GOTCHA: Cameo 2026x: SysMLv2 Evaluation Plugin: Can't handle automated unit conversions correctly yet! Example: 1.1 [m] / 1.1 [cm]
