Title: View Specification Defaults
Post by: Polymorph on September 21, 2024, 12:25:28 am

Hi

Not the first person to ask this question (previous posts have gone unanswered)...

Can diagram display options be specified in view specification. For example, hiding connectors by default or supressing connector stereotypes?

Thanks!

You can definitely do that in the diagram definition, but I'm not sure if it can be done in a view specification. I've never really found a use for them.
I suspect not.

Interesting - I love View Specifications as they provide a way to highlight when you have created content that does not conform to the underlying meta-model. They also don't require you to manually construct toolbox elements which is another task I find very tedious!
