Tagged Values
« on: June 02, 2005, 07:12:07 am »
We were using EA 4.0 (March 2004 build).  In the use case model, we were storing the business rules as a tagged value for each case.  (There are more than 1 tagged value of 'business rule' type.)  

Yesterday we purchased 5.0 and installed it.  When I imported the 4.0 .eap to the 5.0, we lost our ability to edit multiple tagged values with the same type.  In the tagged values screen, only one "business rule" is displayed and there is no way, that I can tell, to make changes to the other "business rule" values that are not displayed.

Does anyone know how to edit the other values that are not displayed if they have the same tag type?

Thanks for any help!

Hi snupea,

I don't know if this option was there in v4, because I really only started to use EA "in anger" (pun intended) for v5.  But in the Options - Objects bottom right there is a checkbox Allow Duplicate Tags.  That probably needs to be checked. :)

As an aside, this also has the effect of correctly rendering the "inheritance" of tagged values for multiple inheritance situations  (what a user interface! ???)
