Is there a way to embed a PDF file in Sparx just as you can with a RTF file?

General Board / Re: Sparx 9.3 HTML Report Error
« on: March 23, 2012, 11:54:51 pm »
The issue has to do with the default model. When i make an html web report by clicking on the root folding in the project browser i get the issue above and i am unable to select anything for the default diagram. When i click on the package (the folder one level below the root folder) this issue doesnt happen and I am able to select the model default diagram.

I have tried deleting some items from the project browser which fixes the issue but also removes items from the project I need. I am unable to narrow it down to a specific item(s) in the project browser

Thanks everyone for the help. The auditing logs was the issue. By deleting the unused images and auditing logs i was able to go from 167 MB to 30 MB!

General Board / Reducting sizwe of Sparx file
« on: January 24, 2012, 05:58:01 am »
I have a Sparx file which is 160 MB in size.

I have deleted all the loaded images (settings->images) stored in the file reducing the file size to 110 MB after i compacted the file (Tools->manage EAP file->compact file)

I then deleted everything under the project browser then compressed the EAP file resulting in the file growing to 115 MB.

When i export the xml of the diagrams then import them into a new file the project is only 50 MB in size but lacks the images. Does anyone know what i could look into removing to reduce the size of my sparx file?

General Board / Re: Flowports in Sparx 9.x
« on: January 21, 2012, 04:23:01 am »
I ended up finding the sparx profile file. To fix the issue all i needed to do was change "FlowPort" to "flowport" in the profile and then re-import that UML profile into the sparx i am using.

What could have caused this issue?

The issue does have something to do with the flow port steriotype. i have a custom Shape Script which i originally though could be the problem. i have tried deleting the entire shape script so the script is blank. Still the port comes up as the wrong size. I then tried override appearance -> none. Still no help.

When deleting the stereotype it does fully solve this size issue. The problem this creates is that i dont have the EAP file for the Sparx profile I am using. With sparx 9.2 can i rescue my UML profile? I dont think i can but worth asking.

One thing ive done was disassociate the flowchart from my UML profile which fixes the issue. (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/220/flowport.jpg/)

If i can get the UML profile i am using how do i modify it to recreate the flow port so it is not corrupted?

Thanks for the help. The "right-click > Advanced > Port Size Customizable" works but needs to be done to every port. Also all new ports i add revert back tot he large size. Is there something else i can try so all the new ports i create are automatically the smallest size possible (which is what i want)

thanks

General Board / Flowports in Sparx 9.x
« on: December 14, 2011, 01:58:29 am »
I am currently using Sparx 7.5 and an looking to upgrade to sparx 9.2. the thing holding me back is flowports. In sparx 9.2 whenever I add flowports they are massive and i cant make them smaller. I even tried creating a new sparx file and was unable to create smaller flowports. Below is a url for an image describing my issue.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
