Description (last modified by massimo ceraolo)

In MA ticket 2162 there have been a discussion on the diode symbol. The IEC has the disadvantage that an erroneous connection between anode and cathode is hardly visible. Dropping that line solves this, but is against the effort of making Modelica symbols as IEC compliant as possible.
The decision was to leave the IEC symbol.

However it may occur to newbies that a line is inadvertently drawn between anode and cathode. This is crazy but happens. It produces an issue which is difficult to spot.

Dymola solves this using a graphical representation which does some difference between a correct diode and a short circuit diode (Dymola.png)
OMEdit does not make any difference (OM.png)
Is it possible to consider something also for OMEdit?

I think the MA ticket number is wrong.
