After importing a package from an XML file, I find that the diagram properties have been lost. To reproduce:
* create a new EA project
* under the Logical View, create a new package
* under the new package, create a new class diagram and a new
class
* add an attribute and a method to the class and add the new
class to the class diagram, the attribute and method
will be visible
* bring up the diagram properties and set the "Hide Attributes"
and "Hide Operations" checkboxes. The attribute and operation
will no longer be visible from the diagram
* select the new package and export to XML
* remove the new package, select the logical view folder, and
import the package from the XML file
* the diagram is restored, but the changed properties are lost
- the attribute and operation are visible
I assume that this is a bug, but perhaps there is some workaround? I have some diagrams with 20 or more classes. I suppress attributes and operations to reduce the clutter in the diagram, but everytime I import the package I have to adjust the diagrams.
