Suggestions and Requests / Re: Hide/unhide elements in diagram by type/stereo

« on: August 24, 2009, 09:52:48 pm »

Thanks Paolo,

After a bit more investigation, I found another feature that is also helpful. Set Visible Relations from the Current Connector toolbar[Ctrl+Shift+i] allows hiding/displaying individual relationships. This should be enough to create the layered diagram approach that I am trying to produce. What would be great is to take this a step further and allow hiding/displaying objects and relationships by type and stereotype and saving these settings as named diagram views. For example, an infrastructure diagram might have a deployment view, a security view, communication view, etc. This capability would be significantly enhance reuse.

Suggestions and Requests / Hide/unhide elements in diagram by type/stereotype

We are trying to create deployment diagrams with multiple views. It would be great to have a way to have hide/unhide objects and relationships based on Type & Stereotype.

It appears that the only option we have now is to make a copy of the diagram and selectively delete elements. The "Select By Type" feature is helpful but unfortunately it does allow selecting relationships.
