Comment

A comment is an optional label that describes a package and provides more information than the name

Stereotype

Sub-classification used to extend the semantics of an object without changing its structure; it can be predefined or user-defined

Default diagram

You can select from the list the diagram to display by default when you open the package

Use parent namespace
