Title: Insert related elements on multiple selection
Post by: EeJay on September 22, 2014, 06:20:34 pm
It seems that the "Insert related elements" option on the popup menu in a diagram is only available when selecting a single element but it is not an option when selecting multiple elements (database views in my case).

Please include it as an option when selecting more than one element in a diagram.

Many thanks
James

Thanks for the feedback. I'll log it. I suppose I could write an add-in to replicate this functionality but it would be better if it was a standard feature of EA.

Logged, along with another request I was about to post.

What other means of influence can we apply to get items to the top of the wishlist?   ;)

skiwi uses to say: ask your friends and your friends friends. And if possible include as many trainers as possible.
