Current behavior

Current services allow to display diagrams but not to return their name (to provide it as legend in the document).

Expected behavior

Define a service to easilly return a diagram name.
It shall be as easy as the existing service as for example asImageByRepresentationDescriptionName('System Architecture Blank').

Moreover, in the case of a loop on existing diagrams, it shall be able to get the name of each diagram.
For example:

m:for im | self.containedSystemAnalysis.ownedSystem.asImageByRepresentationDescr
iptionName('System Architecture Blank')
m:im.fit(500,400)
[DIAGRAM NAME]
m:endfor

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

Provide image legend in generated documents

Environment

M2Doc version: 1.0
Eclipse version: X.Y.Z
Platform version:   X.Y.Z

For this to work in a loop, it means that the model element that represents an image should be enriched with a name (or caption, or title; And maybe some other relevant information, depending on what can be attached to diagrams and images in general, although I don't see any right now)
Then the synta would be
{ m:im.fit(500,400) } <-- produce the image
{ m:im.title } <-- produce the image title/name/caption/whatever

I added two services to get the DRepresentation itself. You can tests them using the nightly p2 repository.

Change your template as follow:

m:for rep | self.containedSystemAnalysis.ownedSystem.representationByDescriptionName('System Architecture Blank')
m:rep.name
m:rep.asImage().fit(500,400)
[DIAGRAM NAME]
m:endfor

The build should be ready in few minutes.
