General Board / Re: rearranging interfaces on ports

« on: June 28, 2017, 07:51:30 pm »

I am quite sure is was possible before.

actually there would not be much sense in manually resizing the ports (which IS possible) if I was not able to then move the interfaces around on the resized port...

2 reasons why I would like to do this:
- default disance between 2 interface representations is quite near. makes it difficult to easily match an interface description to an interface at first glance
- reordering is even more important because the dependency/usage connectors from different service (interface) consumers crisscross each other all over the place. right now the only possible sequence of interfaces is that in which I have added them in the first place.

compare this to the degree of freedom I have when assigning the interfaces directly to the component instead of the port...

General Board / rearranging interfaces on ports

« on: June 28, 2017, 07:19:49 pm »

hi guys.

I have recently been switching from EA 8.0 to 13.

in v 8 I was able to freely rearrange any number of interfaces connected to a port (this relates to a kind of component view). now in v 13 this seems to be somewhat limited. I have already found the option to resize my ports (context menu -> 'Advanced' -> 'Port Size Customizable'). but I still cannot move (reposition, reorder) the multiple interfaces sitting on this port.

has this functionality vanished or have I simply not (re-)found it yet?

kind regards,
Carsten

thanks a lot and please excuse my lazyness. I was expecting some relevant information in other threads, but was unsure whether those might be recent enough to cover v13 yet. so an official statement is appreciated very much.

General Board / EA upgrade to 13 - system requirements

« on: October 13, 2016, 10:39:54 pm »

hi all.

I am a registered user of Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect 8 Professional Edition (don't laugh!). judging from the amount of new and updated features I am finally ready to update to the most current version, which is v13 at the moment.

just dropping in to verify if this is still completely supported on Linux as v7 and 8 have been. I see that your installation tutorial (http://www.sparxsystems.com/support/faq/enterprise-architect-WINE.html) has not changed at all - so is this still valid for v13?

I am using Linux Mint 18 (based on/compatible with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS).

kind regards,
Carsten
