Set Label Visibility
« on: June 26, 2010, 05:11:37 am »
I need to turn "on" the Information Elements in an OV-5 diagram all at once and the only way I know how to do it is to right click on each control flow line and set the visibility.

Is there anyway I can do them all in one shot on a diagram or entire project?

Any advice?

Thanks,
Julie

If you can't find it in the options, look for "template package" in the help file.
In some cases you can set options by adding an example to the "template package"

There is a Connectors tab for Diagram Properties, and then uncheck the checkbox "Suppress All Connector Labels"

Maybe this will work for you

Thanks both of you.  I'll try both ideas.  I'm once again under a time crunch and have to finish this project in the midst of moving, traveling for work, and getting married.

I'm beyond frazzled.. :o

Unfortunately the "Suppress All Connector Labels" radio box is already unchecked.

I read up on the template package and I can build a template, however it would only apply to new diagrams, not existing diagrams.

I have about 40 diagrams all with Information Element Connectors hidden and I need to make them all visible.  Any other suggestions?

Thanks yall.  :)

Julie,

Do you mean that the connectors themselves are hidden (and not only the labels)?
In that case you should use the "Visible Relations" dialog (Ctrl-Shift-I) to select which relations should be shown or hidden.
