Make Composite not available
« on: June 20, 2016, 05:25:40 pm »
I have the latest 12.0 Version of EA Corporate Edition
And I want to add a link from a class/enumeration to a diagram to allow someone not familiar with the overall structure of the model to surf through the model.
All help I could found states that I have to "Advanced->Make Composite" the model element first before it is possible to add such link. But I do not have that "Advanced->Make Composite".
Any Idea?

In the project browser, right click on the class and select Add | Select Composite Diagram
Then select the diagram you'd like to link.

Or on the diagram right click and select New Child Diagram and choose one of the available options.

Thanks a lot.
The internet never forget. Would be great to forget the "make composite" articles.

If you search the help for your version then you should end up at the right article.

(which in this case actually works. "make composite" yields the following page: http://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/12.1/building_models/compositeelements.html)
