Hi there,
I'm using EA 6.1 Build 791 and have hit a few problems using the new RTF generator, as follows:
1. The team want to output only certain elements within a package, so have given these a particular status. Setting the document options to 'include elements with status = [their chosen status]' works until the generator encounters the first element in the package
without this status. It then stops processing the rest of the package.
Workaround: move all the elements to be included up in the project browser so that there are no elements to be excluded until after all elements to be included have been processed.
2. The package level RTF Documentation options to include or exclude the package from RTF documentation don't seem to work, unless the package is the root package for producing the documentation. For example, in this structure:
[size=16]Top Level Package
- Package 1
- Package 2
- Package 3[/size]
If I select Top Level Package, hit F8 and generate RTF, it will produce nothing if this package is set to be excluded. But if I set this on Package 2, but generate RTF from the Top Level Package, the setting is ignored.
3. The workaround to this problem seemed to be set the package phase, so that the ones we wanted to include in the output had a particular phase number and then set Document Generator options again to include packages where phase = x. Unfortunately as with the element status, the first time the generator encounters a package where phase <> x it stops processing. So if Packages 1 and 3 in the example above had phase = x, but Package 2 did not, the RTF generator would only output Package 1.
None of these issues are present with the old generator, but I can't tailor the output the way the team want it.
My guess is that a number of these issues are resolved in the 6.5 Beta but I'm not allowed to upgrade to that.
Thanks.
