Moving elements from a diagram to another
« on: January 13, 2010, 11:56:35 pm »
Hello,

   It is possible to move a element from a diagram to another? I mean to really move, not to do a copy. By example, I have a class in a diagram and I want to move it to other class diagram. How can I do it?

The diagram element is the SHADOW of the element. How could one move a shadow? Move the light source...

Through the GUI there is no way (that I know of) to move a representation of an element (DiagramObject) to another diagram.

Usually copying and pasting the class on another diagram, and removing the class from the first diagram, will be functionally the same as moving a class.

Via the API or the database however that is perfectly possible.
All you need to do is find the DiagramObject for the class on the diagram, and then change the diagramID into another diagramID.
