Automatic layout change when syncronizing

[OrjanC]

I am using EA version 10.0.1009 and have the following problem.

Have a class diagram where I have manually organized the classes in a nice looking way with Tree style lines.

Every time I syncronizes with the code some of the lines automatically change to a straigh line (Type cusom line). Also all other diagram haveing the same classes/lines wil change, even if this diagram is locked.

I think that there in earlier versions was a way prevent this, but I dont find where to do this.

I have tried to set the option "Auto Layout Diagram on Import" to "Never" in under Source Code Engineering.

Can someone help me prevent this automatic layout changes. Its quite annoying to redraw everything manually after syncronizing with the source code.

Thanks Ørjan

Hi,

did you save your diagram changes before synchonising with the code? You should. Synchronisation causes a refresh of all open diagrams, that is, the diagram layout will be fetched from the database, overriding any unsaved layout changes.

Saving the diagram before synchronizing with code solves the "problem" that the layout of the classes is not changed.
But... the the lines is still changed from "tree style" to "straight lines"

Thanks Till, one annoying problem solved,.


Helmut!
I will try you addin.
