Title: Generate Documentation - Exclude Filters
Post by: Modesto Vega on June 06, 2025, 07:51:22 pm

Can somebody please remind how Exclude Filters in Generate Documentation works? I think I am following the counter-intuitive instructions on https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.1/model_publishing/exclude_filters.html (https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.1/model_publishing/exclude_filters.html) but I cannot see any effect, the dialog does not seem to keep the selections.

I need to exclude Extended::Custom, Extended::Dashboard and Extended::Documentation diagrams, plus elements such as NavigationCells, Report Specifications and so on.


We still are in v16.1.1628 64-bit.

Surprisingly, I have not had a reply on this, and the fact that we cannot get this to work properly is creating a significant amount of extra work we do not need.

I'm not sure what the issue is you are having, but this has always worked for me.

Thank you Geert. You are right, it works but only after executing the magic windows solution that fixes all problems: a reboot.
