For customizing we use stereotypes and a customized palette. We define new elements in the palette that apply these stereotypes. It works for many elements as documented (e.g. class, component, port) but not for others.

When defining a device or artifact in the custom palette to apply a stereotype, and using this tool to create a stereotyped device in a deployment diagram, the device or artifact is added to the diagram but the stereotype is not applied. I have to apply it manually via properties->profile.

Part of the custom palette xml description to add a stereotyped device to deployment diagram - does not work:

      <aspectTool description="Create new myDevice" iconpath="platform:/plugin/my.profile/icons/xxxxxx" id="composite.tool.device_1" name="myDevice" refToolId="deployment.tool.device">
        <postAction id="org.eclipse.papyrus.postaction.displayAppliedStereotypeactionprovider">
          <displayName name="profile::myDevice"/>
        </postAction>
        <postAction id="org.eclipse.papyrus.applystereotypeactionprovider">
          <stereotypesToApply>
            <stereotype stereotypeName="profile::myDevice"/>
          </stereotypesToApply>
        </postAction>
        <postAction displayKind="TextIconStereotype" displayPlace="With brace" id="org.eclipse.papyrus.postaction.changeStereotypeDisplayProvider"/>
      </aspectTool>





Part of custom palete to add stereotyped class to a class diagram -- works:

      <aspectTool description="Create new myClass" iconpath="platform:/plugin/my.profile/icons/xxxxxx" id="composite.tool.sysconfig_1" name="myClass" refToolId="composite.tool.class">
        <postAction id="org.eclipse.papyrus.postaction.displayAppliedStereotypeactionprovider">
          <displayName name="profile::myClass"/>
        </postAction>
        <postAction id="org.eclipse.papyrus.applystereotypeactionprovider">
          <stereotypesToApply>
            <stereotype stereotypeName="profile::myClass"/>
          </stereotypesToApply>
        </postAction>
        <postAction displayKind="TextIconStereotype" displayPlace="With brace" id="org.eclipse.papyrus.postaction.changeStereotypeDisplayProvider"/>
      </aspectTool>



No exceptions are thrown.
I followed these instructions for the custom palette:
