Title: Traceability of Instances
Post by: ronald1705 on February 20, 2018, 11:50:25 pm

Hello,

I´m trying  to use Enterprise Architect to draw block diagramms of electronic circuits.
In order to not draw objects again and again I created a library of the uses parts. For example let´s say a controller.
In the block diagramm I then create an instance of that controller.

My problem is, that I don´t see a way to find the original object from the instance, when I don´t know where it is in my project tree.
The same goes the other way around. I can´t find a way to see all instances of an object, when I´m looking at the library. This would be usefull if I would like to know where the controller is used.

Am I doing something wrong or is this just not possible in EA?

Many thanks in advance,
Ronald

Ronald,

Check the options in the traceability view. One of them allows instance/classifier navigation.
