Suggestions - RTF editor and generation
« on: June 19, 2007, 01:52:06 am »
I’m using the RTF generation with EA 6.5.
The template editor is very easy to use but very very limited.

I’m a business architect in a french company. We are looking for an UML tool to buy for the company (2000 employees and 500 licences needed). We have bought 10 licences to test your product. We love it.

Nevertheless, the RTF document generation looks too limited for our needs.
Is it planned to improve this aspect?

Indeed, we can’t in this version:
-
generate one document for all package model or view. We can only generate one for actors, one for use cases, one for webflows, one for project context, one for business processes, ...
-
define different display rules and structures (sections selection) for a package and each sub package
-
display each package and sub package in a different heading depth
-
search/go through UML elements linked (using trace or dependency or realization dependency types), for example from a use case to a requirement (we can do it) and its requirements linked or from a process activity to a use case or from use case to a webflow. We need to generate some fields content of UML elements linked
-
define some section generation rules: for example, do not generate if the section is empty or if its name is XXX...
-
insert relationships matrix in a document
-
update an existing document having a content
-
apply a Word model (.dot)
-
add a new section
There is an indentation problem when we want to include word document linked to a use case
How can we change the bullets design ?

Maybe some problems have a solution but we have not find it yet.

Thank you for taking account of these suggestions as soon as you can.

Best regards

Paolo F Cantoni
