Navigability information lost on associations
« on: January 13, 2016, 08:00:44 pm »
When I change the navigability of one of the ends of an association EA correctly changes the arrow of the associations to show the updated navigability.
Until I close and re-open the diagram. Then suddenly the navigability information is lost ???
I can now only change the navigability by changing the "direction" on the association level.

This seems to happen in v12.1 (1225) but not in v12 (1215)

Reported as bug

I've logged two bugs about inconsistent relationship behaviour as well.  Looks to be a bit of a pattern in the last release.

This issue has been fixed for the most part in version 12.1.1226
There are still weird inconsistencies when you modify both the direction and the individual roles's navigability.
So sometimes you still get a result on the diagram that will be different after reloading the diagram.

You still have to reload diagrams to see changes to information flows, so i guess there is still work to go.
