Title: Annoying prompts
Post by: telcontr on July 23, 2003, 05:35:10 pm

I assume EA is a tool for professionals.
The first and second time you want to delete an object, it is OK to be warned "This action cannot be undone, are you sure".
But it is not fun anymore after the 10th time.

Let us say I have 5 objects on the page, select all and press Del.
Lo and behold - I am prompted 5 times about this!!!
Professionals know how the Del button works - can I shut these prompts out? It is not only here where I get annoying prompts - the prompts are slowing me down and (soon) driving me nuts...

Ingvar,

If you look under the General Options in EA, there's a tick box for "Confirm Deletes".  This is what you are looking for.

Personally I prefer to leave them on, just in case.

Cheers,
Martin.

Thanks Martin,

I didn't find this because I did not look under the View menu.
If I now only could find out how to print all diagrams in one operation...

Hi Ingvar,

try right-clicking on your top-level package (project root)and selecting "Diagrams Only" to generate an RTF document with all diagrams.

You can also do this lower in the package tree by right clicking on the package, selecting "Documentation" and then "Diagrams Only".

Cheers,
Mark
