General Board / Remembering the last toolbox item

« on: April 30, 2008, 10:12:14 am »

Is there a way to tell it to remember the last thing you picked up from the toolbox such as a dependeny connector and use it multiple times without having to go back to the toolbox after every connection?

Thanks

General Board / Documenting questions

« on: April 28, 2008, 09:32:57 am »

I have an EA project structured the following way.

* Architectural Model
* Analysis Model
* Design Model
  ** Services
     *** Subsystem1
     *** Subsystem2
     *** Subsystem3
* Data Model
* Package Model
* Component Model

Under each subsystem are the structural and behavioral diagrams etc to explain what it is/does.

The data, package and component models contain all the databases/tables/classes/interfaces/components of the entire system. They are used like a library for diagrams for the design models.

My problem is trying to produce a single document that will contain all the relevent information for each subsystem. We are going to be outsourcing the programming work and want to hand the designs of each subsystem out without releasing a copy (or readonly copy) of the entire EA project.

However when I tell it to produce a document on Subsystem1 for example, and turn on every option I can find, the document does not report on the properties/methods/attributes of any of the databases/tables/classes/interfaces/components that are found in the data, package and component models.

Basically I want it to report on any object that was referenced in the diagrams.

I don't want to create a document for each model because I don't want to give them all that information. I don't want to create a document on each class/interface that I use because I may miss one or worse, I need to recreate the document again if it's updated.

Is there an option to do this please?

Thanks,
Darren.

We are in the progress of upgrading but you have given me an acceptable workaround for the moment. For us upgrading is a long process of testing etc etc. Thanks.

General Board / toolbox

« on: April 16, 2008, 03:04:30 pm »

I've just upgraded to v7.0. Previously I could see all the different types of tools in the toolbox but now only one type (such as class) is visible and I have to click on More Tools, click on the category (eg. UML) and then the type (Class). I cannot find an option to view all at the same time. Don't tell me its gone from selecting something from the toolbox to 3 clicks before I can see it. Seems a waste of space in the toolbox too when only one type is shown.
