Notes Toolbar
Although it is not an independent toolbar that you can pin to the screen top or sides, or float in your work area, the Notes toolbar appears in many places across Enterprise Architect in the Notes, Description and History fields in, for example, the:
| · | Element and Connector properties dialogs |
| · | Features properties dialog |
| · | Diagram properties dialog |
| · | Hyperlink Details dialog |
| · | Testing window descriptions |
| · | Assigned Resources dialog |
| · | Project Management windows |
| · | Scenarios & Requirements window |
Options
The options of this toolbar operate on selected text and any new text continuing from the formatting. The options (with some keyboard shortcuts) are, from left to right:
| · | Make text italic (Ctrl+I) |
| · | Change the font color of the text |
| · | Insert list bullet points (Ctrl+. ) (full stop) |
| · | Insert list numbering (Ctrl+1) |
| · | Insert a hyperlink - this displays the Hyperlink Details dialog, on which you specify the type of hyperlink and type in or browse for the location of the target of the hyperlink; you can use full paths or local (path substitution) paths, and you can either select or type the link text or leave the text blank to use the link address as the text |
| · | Create a new linked document for the element, or edit an existing one |
Notes
| · | If the toolbar is displayed but grayed out, the text field is read-only and cannot be edited; other long text fields in Enterprise Architect might not have the toolbar, in which case the Notes facility is not available for those fields |
| · | For any Notes text that is displayed on a diagram, you must select the checkbox on the Feature and Compartment Visibility dialog in order to reproduce the formatting |
| · | You can create a Project Glossary term and definition from text in any field that has the Notes toolbar |
