Title: information flow connector enhancements
Post by: pittagentskip007 on February 28, 2012, 05:14:12 am

Hi,

So when establishing information flow between two elements with the information flow connector (stereotype of dependency), I would request the following enhancements in order of importance

1) that there be a section on the connector properties to list/edit the conveyed items instead of having to right click, advanced, show conveyed items

2) have an option in preferences that will hide the conveyed items label by default (becomed unwieldy if more than one item and tedious to right click, label visibility, hide label everytime)

3) enhance the traceability window to show the conveyed items somehow

I'm absolutely with you. Have you ever tried moving a Information Items Realized connector from A to B? You'll see the association moving but not the information flow! I already sent a bug report. The way these associations are handles is quite insane. You never get the right context (Information Flow or Association). Instead of "improving" I'd recommend a redesign.
