EA13: apply diagram filter using tag values to connectors?
« on: November 19, 2016, 02:48:42 am »
Hi,

EA13 introduced the ability to specify diagram filters on tags - a great addition!

Using tag values, I am able to control the visibility of items, such as nodes in a deployment diagram, but the filter does not seem to affect the visibility of connectors.

For example, if I have a node that has a tag 'flag', I can create a filter that shows or hides the node based on the True/False value of the flag. If I add the same tag to an association between two (other) nodes, the filter, which works for nodes, does not show/hide the association.

Am I doing something wrong or do diagram filters based on tags only work for non-connector items?

Thanks, Stephan

I notice that with v14.1, this is still not available.  Are there any plans to rectify this anomaly?
