In a class diagram I have defined a lot of entity types. Each entity type has a relation to an application component. I defined this relation in a relationship matrix.

Now I want to 'highlight' on the diagram with entity types that are related to - let's say - application A. Or: hide / fade the entity types that are not related to application A.

I struggle how to realize this.

What I can do is to drag the application element on the diagram, activate the Relationships filter and select the application element on the diagram. Drawback: at dragging the application element on the diagram, a lot of connectors are drawn (which I don't want, but I couldn't find an easy way to prevent this, and I don't want to hide the connectors one-by-one - the application element is only for a moment on the diagram, to enable filtering).

What are your suggestions?
