RequirementID in UseCase title?

[jberntx]

Hi All

Is it possible to automatically add properties to the title of an element? In example, we would like to append the requirementID to the general headline for a UseCase when shown in a diagram.

Thanks for any help, JB

Can you please elaborate on this. Do you have only a single requirement per use case?? How are use case and req. related?

Hi

I will try to explain this a bit further. We use RaQuest to generate unique IDs for both requirements, test cases etc.

I would like this ID to be displayed as part of the text for each element in a diagram.

Thus in the example below:

I would like the text on the TestCase to state "Load door - 3315". So the "Load door" comes from the General properties while the 3315 is the RequirementID.

Thanks for helping, JB

The only way to do that is to write a MDG where you define your own use case. By assigning a stereotype to such a use case you can define a shape script. And this shape script can read and print tagged values like the one you like to show. It's a bit of work but in the end it pays off. See here for an intro.
