Title: Bug about Active Class!
Post by: gazxfe on June 25, 2006, 11:45:44 pm

Hi:
  I find a bug about active calss. When I set a Class as an active class, the style of class doesn't change.

Example:

Normal Class

Works OK for me.  (build 791)

I see what you see in your example.  Are you NOT seeing what you've posted?

If you are, what is your exact problem with what you are seeing?

Thank you ! I found out how to do that.

Properties-->General-->Advanced-->is Active

The method I was used is setting the attribute  'isActive'=True(in Customer Properties).

Could you tell me what's different about the two attributes?

Thank you

Andy.

Hi Andy,

This is similar to the Multiplicity versus Cardinality question you'll find I posted in the forum a long time ago.  One works, one doesn't.

I can't explain why there are two IsActive concepts.  :(
Normally the Custom properties are for UML attributes not handled directly by EA (see my post on this elsewhere).

I'm afraid EA's unique user interface strikes again...   ::)
