"Element Model Overwrite Authorization" dialog shows only name of element that is going to be rewritten. But it is not clear to user which of two elements with the same name will be rewritten by another one. More details about element location should be provided. steps: - create empty java project. - open java application properties. - add two source directories: 'src1' and 'src2'. - add new java class 'NewClass' to 'src1' (with no packages) - the same for 'src2': add 'NewClass' to 'src2' (with no packages) - create RE uml project. "Element Model Overwrite Authorization" dialog appears with question if user wants to overwrite element "NewClass". It is not clear which of them will be overwritten by another one.
