General Board / Unable to drag and drop an item to the feature matrix

« on: November 01, 2023, 02:52:48 am »

Hello, EA Experts,

Can someone help me, please, and let me know why I am unable to drag and drop an item to the relationship matrix? When I dragged and dropped the two items shown, they have not been populated.

Thank you!

General Board / Re: Create a stereotyped Requirement elements

Hello qwerty,

Thank you for chiming in. I need to hid to make it consistent with the rest of the elements in the diagram.

Now, "strategic imperative" looks odd compared to the rest of the elements in the diagram which would actually raise the question by the reader "why is this different?"

Hello, Shimon,

Thanks a lot for your response. That worked! I managed to add a custom stereotype, as shown below...

https://ibb.co/whmBcpc

Now, I am trying to make the element appearance similar to the other elements in the model. i.e., appears with only the stereotype at the top. I tried switching the appearance to "Use Rectangle Notation" but I still see the Requirement stereotype icon at the top right; as shown below...
https://ibb.co/rZKTP3Y

I tried to uncheck "Use Stereotype Icons" in Design > Diagram > Manage > Properties > Elements but that did not work

https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.1/modeling_languages/stereotype_visibility.html

Is there a way to hide this stereotype icon?

General Board / Create a stereotyped Requirement elements

« on: October 22, 2023, 06:37:20 pm »

Hello, EA Experts,

I am using the Business Motivation Model to model the strategic elements of an organization. The model uses stereotyped requirements for modeling goals, objectives, mission, vision, etc. (as shown in the screenshot). I dragged a non-stereotyped Requirement element from the toolbox and I want to create a stereotype for it and call it "strategic imperative". When I open the Properties window, I do not see the stereotype filed, I can only see the type filed (as shown in the screenshot).

Can someone please help me on how to add a stereotype for the Requirement element?

Thank you,

General Board / Architecture Repository for Sharing

« on: October 07, 2023, 01:42:16 am »

Hello, EA Experts,

I came across a presentation on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hixLdgi4WGA titled "Visualizing Your Enterprise Architecture using TOGAF and Enterprise Architect".

I am wondering whether someone has a similar architecture repository that they can share with me.

Thank you very much!

Uml Process / Generate report with diagrams and notes

« on: February 21, 2022, 11:48:08 am »

Hello, EA experts,

I have been trying to generate a report from EA that includes only diagrams and the notes. In the "Generate Documentation" dialogue box, thee's a tab "Suppress sections". I guess I need to check mark every thing except "diagram" and "notes". I don't see "notes", though.

I would appreciate your guidance on this.

Thank you!
Moe

General Board / Re: The elements of a model created from a pattern does not show

From where can I import them?

Thank you, KP. I tried that. I loaded the model from "Create from pattern" and it was loaded without images as shown in the screenshot.

When I set the perspective to AWS and tried to drag and element to the diagram, I got the shown error message.

Thank you, Geert and qwerty. Is there a way to restore the images library?

It's weird. I have older versions (in separate files) of that model pattern and the images appears normally. I tried to export from the older project to the new project but surprisingly the images still disappearing after importing!

The only thing I did recently is that I installed a new Windows 10 on 2 machines, then installed EA 15.2. I am wondering whether the OS has anything to do with that.

I hope this is what you mean.

I also took a screenshot of how the model looks in the model wizard

I used the same exact pattern before and it was displayed correctly but I am nit sure what happened to prevent it from displaying this time!

Hello, EA experts,

I am trying to create an Amazon AWS model from a pattern but for some reason, after I create the model, the elements does not show.
Few things I tried:
- Restarted the device
- Created the pattern with a new file (to eliminate the the file might be corrupt)
- Used a different machine that has EA
- Tried using a different pattern

Please see the screenshots:

Hello EA experts,

I followed exactly the instructions in this video to create custom search

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CikA51_1g4g

but for some reason, I get no results. What could have gone wrong from my end?

I would appreciate your insights
