External Requirements with RTF-generator

[h.neumann]

We upgraded our Enterprise Architect software to release 5.0 a fortnight ago.
However, I have difficulty in generating a print of the Use Cases External Requirements using the RTF generator since the upgrade.  
Is it at all possible in the new release?  
Please advise.

What is the exact problem? I could create a Requirements report without problems.

What is the exact problem? I could create a Requirements report without problems.

It is possible to link requirements to a use case. External requirements.
If i create a use case report, then i wil also printing the linked requirements with the use cases.
Is this possible in the new RTF-generator.

You could place the external requirements in either the same package as the use cases or one "nearby" so it is included with the RTF report. I haven't played much with the new RTF yet, but it has a Child Element section. The easiest was: give it a try (one use case, one requirement, basic template) and see what happens...

I posted the same question previously but at that time no one replied . However it seemed fairly clear to me that this was a bug and I raised a bug request for Sparx.

They have since come back to me and said that this is a problem and is going to be fixed in a future release. It is unfortunate because if you use this feature of EA, not being able to generate this documentation is a pain (to say the least).

One work around that I have found is to use the 'Connector' and 'Target Element', the main problem with this is that any other connections apart from realisations also get picked up, but I guess it is better than nothing...
