Image Asset: Show Owned Image fails after update
« on: November 29, 2016, 07:57:45 am »
Started experimenting with the new Image Asset, really liked what I saw at first, and could see me using this for linking screen mockups to activities.

Using Sparx EA 13.08 on Windows 7.

Create an image asset by:
1. Dragging a .png file on to a diagram
2. Select "as image asset"
3. Select the new image asset on the diagram, right click and check "Show Owned Image"
4. Diagram now shows the "image", perfect for what I need.
5. Select the new image asset on the diagram, right click and check "Update Stored Image"
6. Select a different PNG file
7. Select the new image asset on the diagram, "Show Owned Image" is now unchecked
8. Tried checking "Show Owned Image",  stays unchecked

Variation:
1. Dragging a .png file on to a diagram
2. Select "as image asset"
5. Select the new image asset on the diagram, right click and check "Update Stored Image"
6. Select a different PNG file
7. Select the new image asset on the diagram, right click and check "Show Owned Image"
8. No change, "Show Owned Image" is still unchecked

Will keep trying with some other variations to see what's going on.

On further testing, this only seems to be an issue for images generated from MS Powerpoint slides, images from other sources work fine.... weird.
