RTF and connector Parameter property
« on: October 24, 2008, 10:20:49 pm »
I'm attempting to generate a RTF report.

In the connector section of the RTF report, I want to insert the connectors Parameters value (as named on the dialog Message Properties).

For example, to insert the Message value (as named on the dialog box), you use {Connector.Name}

How do I insert the Parameters?  Right clicking does not give an immediate option.

I tried {Connector.ValueOf(ConnectorAltName)} but this crashes EA (see seperate bug report in the Bugs/Issues forum).  Is this the correct way of doing this?  Or is there another way?

Its important since I want the connectors list to show the same message naming as you get in the diagram view.  The diagram view shows the Parameters value, not the message name value.

Thanks

The Sequence and Commnication diagram messages are in the Diagram::Messages - Section.  it is {DiagramMsgs.MsgParameters}.
See the {interaction messages diagram} template as an example.
