Local options - can I export them?
« on: June 06, 2005, 04:24:51 am »
Enterprise Architect has come to have quite a few options that the user can set to fit his taste. This I think is a GOOD thing.
I have changed a lot of options to fit what I think works best, and have consequently also spent a good bit of time doing so.
Now comes the problem: I have the task of introducing EA (and OO methods) to a lot of new users in our organization. I would like them to start out with the same set of options that I have found to work well.
Is there a way to copy my options to their installation?

Best regards,
Mikkel

Hi Mikkel,
I would also like to know how these options are stored. Especially after upgrading EA I find myself in the position to manually restore many settings. I guess the Registry is the place in question. Maybe it is possible to export relevant parts and re-import them?

I have thought about trying to fiddle with the registry settings directly (that would surely be possible) but it would be better if EA had an official export/import procedure. That way they could also provide some intelligent handling of old settings when the available options are changed in new versions.
