I just tried it and it worked. I was able to add a static address to my wifi connection while keeping the dhcp one. "nm-connection-editor" has to be run from the command line, there is no icon for it. The Gnome connection editor doesn't support doing this.
Perhaps there is a difference depending on the Fedora version. I'm trying to apply this to an older release (which I'm not allowed to upgrade). Since it worked for you, can you tell me what changes were made to the configuration files. I'm happy to do this manually.
It's always good to mention which release you're using. Otherwise, people will assume you're using something current.
It appears that it just added entries for "IPADDR=" and "PREFIX=". It's possible that the NetworkManager version you have won't support it though. And btw, this doesn't create an alias, it just adds another IP address to the existing interface.
