How to show selected object in one diagram?

[James Chan]

Hi, anybody,

    We want to show diagram object that is selected in one open diagram so that to highlight it. How can we do it?
Thank you!

'Highlight' where?? In the project browser? -> Use context menu 'Find->In project browser' or one of the other options.

May be I didn't get your question ...

Highlight in one diagram achived by our addin but not that by native EA UI such as "Find->In project browser" or "Find->In All Diagram".
We did not find any API supporting that.

Repository.ShowInProjectView should give you a similar effect to the Find In Project Browser command.

Unfortunately there is nothing similar to the "Find in all Diagrams" command at this time.

"Find in all diagrams" is not that difficult to simulate.

I'm using something similar in my EA Navigator addin.

This window: https://github.com/GeertBellekens/Enterprise-Architect-Toolpack/blob/master/EANavigator/NavigatorList.cs
can be used to navigate to most types of elements, including diagram.
It is used when you use the context menu options to navigate to elements or diagrams.
