UI: Quickly find 'instance of' classifier
« on: November 02, 2007, 08:21:52 am »
Hi,

How can I quickly navigate to, in the Project Browser, the 'object classifier' for a certain element of which it is an instance?

I can use the Finder to find it, but I would have guessed a right-click on the instance would offer up a means to quickly get to it.  

Thanks,
gary

I don't think there's anything from the project browser.  From a diagram it is in the context menu and has the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+G.

I don't see it on the 'context menu' (I'm on V7.0.816- Unicode), but the key shortcut definitely works.  I'll live with it  :)

The shortcut is quicker, if you know it, but just for completeness:

On the Element context menu in the diagram (right-click on the element within the diagram) select the Find option. This displays a submenu, containing the option Locate Classifier in Project Browser.

Diagram context menu:
Find | Locate Classifier in Project Browser
