General Board / Re: Collapse/fold/hide lifelines in a sequence diagram

« on: May 04, 2023, 10:37:26 pm »

Hello all, thanks for the response, fyi.. the best that I have been able to do on this regard is to use "Layers" i.e. create more than one  and then "add" lifelines of interest to each layer. when  you check-box unselect the layers, the lifelines and messages just disappear from the view. Spacing is not re-arranged though.
thanks.

General Board / Collapse/fold/hide lifelines in a sequence diagram

« on: May 03, 2023, 02:09:43 am »

Hello All,

I am in the need to be able to collapse or fold some lifelines and their messages from a sequence diagram so I can have better discussions with a stakeholder that do not care on the hidden lifelines. Kind of when you collapse rows or columns in excel. I am pretty sure this function exists in EA since I remember using it a few years back, but now I just cannot find it. Does it ring any bell to you?

Thanks!

So, only one of the attributes on only one module had slashes on name and was causing the issue. As suggested, temporarily modified and it worked

will figure out if I need to permanently modify the name.

@querty, thanks for the input, it was very helpful.

for future references, in my case, import log was located at:

C:\Users\[ your user]\AppData\Roaming\Sparx Systems\EADoors\Logs

100% worth to check it in case of errors when importing reqs.

thanks.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Error "Import Objects failed due to invalid Properties in the profile" Doors imp

Hello forum, thanks for reading;  your feedback will be really appreciated:

I am using EA DOORS Add-in for importing requirements from DOORS, I have several modules in my project where all but one can be correctly imported.

For each module, import its done by going to DOORS/Import from DOORS, then select the module and profile.

The failing module throws a dialog with the legend:
"Import Objects failed due to invalid Properties in the profile"

has anyone run into this issue or have an idea on it?

additional information:
-profile is done the same for all modules
-All the working modules, have requirements where an attribute "EAGUID" is populated with a large number {3453....}. the failing module has the attribute but it seems to be e empty for all requirements.
-My user has write permissions on all modules.
