Port diagrams
« on: August 26, 2019, 07:13:53 pm »
Hello,

I’ve run out of ideas with a problem I’m having with a publishing template and I was hoping someone could help.

I’ve got a few port diagrams in Sparx EA version 13. For each port diagram, I would like to export the following connector information, for connectors within the diagram only;

1)  The connectors name

2)  The connector note

3)  The source element name (the port)

4)  The source element Owner Name (the owning block)

5)  The target element name (the port)

6)  The target element owner name (the owning block)

The problem I seem to be having is the drop-down menu in the “Sections” window does not go any deeper than “Package>Diagram>Connectors” (so no >Source>Elements). If I use “Package>Diagram>Element>Connector>Source>Elements” and filter on ports, it provides all the ports connectors and I only want the connectors shown in the diagram.

I get the feeling I need to use custom queries, but my SQL knowledge is non-existent.

Would anyone be able to advise on how I could achieve my goal?

Many thanks,

Tim
