Title: Bulk modifications from within Element List
Post by: ChrisDr on May 15, 2009, 04:00:21 pm
Hello,
to simplify, eg, requirements managment from within EA it would be very helpful to make bulk changes from within the Element List. E.g. if you have a bunch of requirements that you want to set from "Proposed" to "Approved" this works only one by one right now.

I could imagine something like multiple select items and then a right click on a column would bring up a selection of possible entries which you can select one from. This would only work for elements with drop-down lists in the Property fields, but that would be sufficient I guess.

Best regards,
Chris

There is a way to do bulk updates of the status and version field of all elements in a package:

Just tried this and it worked, although to have the changes reflected on open diagrams you have to reload them

Hi!

Thanks for the information. Though not that fine granular as I'd like it, but with some moving around it does the job.
