Multiple Diagrams to be generated in a template

[daniorza]

Hello,

I am trying with EA to generate a complete Design document based on a given template. The problem I have is  that I do not know how to insert different diagrams in diffrent positions of the Template. I tried to use Master Document and Model Document but unfortunately I cannot or do not understand how can I generate a report with multiple diagrams in a common Template. Does anyone have an example ?

Thanks and Regards

Daniel

Hello Daniel,

if the template has a definition for a diagram it outputs each diagram with this definition. Therefore: If the package contains 10 diagrams than the rtf generator will output 10 diagrams.

Usually there is no need to output the same diagram twice.

You can't have more than one diagram definition in a template.

If you use a master document you may link different templates to different packages.

Be aware: A template is the output definition for a peace of model information like diagram.

Hello Helmut,

this measn that is not possible within EA to insert the diagrams (example those 10) in different places (choose by me ) of the template ?

thanks for the answer

Hello Daniel,

you can only define two positions/definitions of a diagram in one template (I forgot to mention a diagram which is below an element).

1. Diagram as member of a package (below package)
2. Diagram as a member of an element (below element)

These two definitions can be different.

With MasterDocument you can define a template for each package.
