General Board / How to create a "click-through" object in a diagram

« on: November 17, 2018, 05:47:58 am »

I have searched the forum for this subject already. I have seen EA models that have diagram elements that you can click through to "drill down" to another layer of detail. However, I cannot figure out how to do that. For example,I might want to create an object that represents a business process and be able to click through it to see the actual details of the process, such as an activity diagram. Any help will be appreciated.

General Board / Re: Cannot select a project from the DB repository

You are correct - I was thinking of a project as being the same as a root node in the .eap file. I just tried your suggestion and did an XMI export/import into a new root node. Thanks!

General Board / Cannot select a project from the DB repository

« on: June 20, 2018, 02:06:01 am »

I am running EA Corporate 13.5, with a Microsoft SQL Server 2016 database for the repository. I have followed the instructions for transferring projects to the repo for three different projects, but when I connect to the repo to get a project, I always get the last one transferred and I cannot see which projects are in the repo in order to select one. What am I doing wrong? I have just started using this product, but I would have expected to see some kind of project browser for accessing the projects in the repository. I have this in my data modeling tools, but I can't find one in EA.

EDIT: On re-reading the documentation, I get the impression that the repository can hold only one project at a time. Is that really the case?
