On separate lines, type each element type and the name of the Template Fragment to use for that element type, in the format:
ElementType:<stereotype>:Fragment Name
For example (elements not extended by a stereotype): Action::Behavioral ActionPin::Simple Behavioral CollaborationUse::Structural
and (element extended by a stereotype):
Class: table : Database Table
To identify the fragment to use if elements are reported that have not been specifically identified, type:
default::Fragment Name
