Project-specific settings for format
« on: October 11, 2008, 05:26:05 am »
Is there a way to define and store within the model file project specific fonts and colours? What I want to achieve is that whoever on the team opens the shared .eap file will see the diagrams exactly the same way (and not with own preferences) and any of us can produce report that will look exactly the same.

Currently, when I generate report (rtf), the diagrams are with the styles (colours/fonts) I have customised on my installed version of EA (e.g., white fill, no shadow, black text and lines for all). Another colleague didn't modify any of the settings related to diagrams look, so the reports he generates are with default EA settings (light rose fill, red/green text for class attributes/operations, Arial 10 fonts, etc.) You can then imagine that his diagrams get deformed when I open the file (and mines get deformed when he opens the file) - and all the work one of us does (to fit stuff on one page, the distance and aligning, etc.) is lost...

Please, don't point me to project colours get/set, or status colors settings - I know those but they don't fulfill our requirements.

Thanks in advance.

You can set a project font (Tools | Options | Objects | Configure Default Fonts) but not the colours to my knowledge.
