Change element parent to diagram package

[Paul W]

This one is a hang over from my Rose days.
When in a diagram highlight one or more elements and have a locate to current package option. The elements would then be moved into the current package and the browser refreshed.
Use it lots to organise models

What a nice feature!

I suggest you fire this in to Sparx. Use the Feature Request link below the Support link near the bottom of any forum page.

I have an add-in command for this purpose if it helps.

Code: [Select]

       int CountDiagramSelectionInOtherPackage(EA.Repository r)
        {
            EA.Diagram d = r.GetCurrentDiagram();
            if(d == null)
                return 0;

            int count = 0;
            EA.Collection c = d.SelectedObjects;
            foreach (EA.DiagramObject o in d.SelectedObjects)
            {
                EA.Element e = r.GetElementByID(o.ElementID);
                if (e.PackageID != d.PackageID)
                    count++;
            }
            return count;
        }

        void MoveDiagramSelectionToThisPackage(EA.Repository r)
        {
            EA.Diagram d = r.GetCurrentDiagram();
            if (d == null)
                return;

            EA.Collection c = d.SelectedObjects;
            foreach (EA.DiagramObject o in d.SelectedObjects)
            {
                EA.Element e = r.GetElementByID(o.ElementID);
                if (e.PackageID != d.PackageID)
                {
                    e.PackageID = d.PackageID;
                    e.Update();
                    r.AdviseElementChange(e.ElementID);
                }
            }
        }
