MDA - can't find a way to access modifiers

[pocketom]

In a transformation script, I try to set the modifier of an operation to 'virtual' based on some stereotype condition. But in the help topics I can't find anything to access the modifiers (unfortunately a search for "modifier" in the Microsoft help delivers 141 results, responding also to worthless key-words like "modifiy", "modifying", "modified",... "WHERE CAN I TURN THAT #&@!? MICROSOFT INTELLIGENCE OFF" ??)

That's what I want to access:

Those things are stored in tagged values.

Ok, thx. I found it. Those things are really hard to find in the help files because exact search isn't possible with the Microsoft help. Does anybody know how to overcome this?

Can't you convert the help file to something more sensible to search in?

Thanx a lot, that helps. A PDF can be searched well: http://www.chm-to-pdf.com/

If you want to search in html, it's available in html on this web page.  (Top right click radio button for 'EA User Guide')

It also used to be available in pdf, but I can't see it now.

The pdf (for EA 7.5) is available through a number of paths:

http://www.sparxsystems.com/resources/booklets/

www.sparxsystems.com/bin/EAUserGuide.pdf

http://www.sparxsystems.com/resources/index.html

(The options are slightly different, but they actually go to the same place.)

Thank you, I bookmarked the PDF user guide.
