Structured Scenarios - Order of paths...
« on: November 12, 2010, 02:47:32 pm »
Hi again,

I think I'm giving the poor old Structured Scenario editor a bit of a flogging today.

After exporting the Use Case, I notice that the paths seem to be in some sort of order... ie. Alternative paths appear before the Basic path, and in some unusual order within this...

Has anyone found a method to put them into a more logical order?

For example, the order in which they appear in the Structured Scenario editor?

Hello Andy
I had a similar issue some time ago, when I was trying to to output the structured scenarios. I reported the bug to Sparx who acknowledged that it was a problem to fixed in the future.
I worked aroound the problem by writing an addin

Sorry I cant be of any further help

No worries Graham,

I guess I'll just have to hack the documents around in Word once they near their final version.

Hopefully it has remained on Sparx's radar.

I have been assured that some problems in the Structured Scenario editor are being addressed in the next major release, so here's hoping...

Andy,
          You can manually fix the order by opening up the Properties window for your use case, click on the Scenarios tab, click on the Description tab, select the path you want to move, then use the up and down hands to move it up or down in the order.

    It`s a pain to do this/check this everything you make scenario changes, but it does work.

Aaaarg!  In the Description Tab!

It never occurred to me to look for this option there!
