Suggestions and Requests / A little suggestion on documents.

« on: June 02, 2009, 03:56:32 am »

In SDK for Enterprise Architect/Tagged Value Types/Predefined Structured Types, there are two lines starting with RefGUID and RefGUIDList respectively.

But in SDK for Enterprise Architect/Tagged Value Types/Create Reference Data Tagged Values, there exists no reference to those two lines.

Suggestions and Requests / "Tag Name" and "Tag Type" are confusing

« on: May 30, 2009, 10:44:37 am »

After clicking "Settings/UML/Tagged Value Types", in the current tab-page there are "Tag Name" and "Defined Tag Types". It is confusing because two different names are used to represent the same kind of entities, "Tag Type" in this case.

And, after adding a Tag to some element, name of the Tag is the same as the Tag Type.

Name of a Tag is forced to be the same as the type name of the Tag. It is strange, isn't it? And it may make the model confusing when one Tag Type is extensively used in different places.

Can you explain the idea of "a general relationships matrix"?

General Board / Re: How to hide a part of the connectors in a diag

Thank you!

RoyC's approach is exactly the solution.

For some unknown reason I ignored menu item "Visible Relations", hence I coded a script to solve it. After reading <<Midnight>>'s words, I think maybe the script is not completely useless ...

Good product.

General Board / How to hide a part of the connectors in a diagram.

« on: June 02, 2009, 03:28:58 am »

Right-click the active diagram, after selecting "Properties/connectors", and unchecking the "Show Relationships" box, all connectors in the diagram will be hidden.
But is there an equally simple way to hide only part of the connectors in the diagram, by some criteria?

Following is the requirement in details.

• There is a diagram containing some functional Requirements, and some "aggregation" connectors. Another diagram contains some Usecases, some of which <<includes>> others. And "Realize" relations are defined in the Matrix to represent that some Usecases implement some functional requirements.
• Now I need a diagram to show which Usecase implements which Requirement.
• I create a new diagram, copy all Requirements from one of the diagram, then copy all Usecases from the other.

Now I need to show only the "Realize" connectors, and hide all the "aggregation" and "<<includes>>" connectors.

General Board / Re: RTF edit for tagged values

« on: May 30, 2009, 10:40:49 am »

I didn't understand some terms, hence the question.

But the terms are really confusing. After clicking "Settings/UML/Tagged Value Types", in the current tab-page there are "Tag Name" and "Defined Tag Types". It is confusing because two different names are used to represent the same kind of entities, "Tag Type" in this case.

And, after adding a Tag to some element, name of the Tag is the same as the Tag Type.

General Board / RTF edit for tagged values

« on: May 30, 2009, 03:14:53 am »

A tagged value of type String is defined for some Stereotype in some Profile.

After importing the Profile and applying the Stereotype on some element, I found that the tagged value's edit control is a single-line text edit.

How to specify to use a multi-line text edit, or an RTF edit?
