Locate Classifier from Instance
« on: April 29, 2016, 07:04:38 pm »
Scenario:
Instances of a classifier are in a different location to the classifier in the project structure.
From an instance on the diagram, can locate the classifier (either right click and find classifier, or shortcut Ctrl-Alt-G).

Issue:
When viewing the instance in the browser, Ctrl-Alt-G does not locate the classifier, nor is there a context menu.

Am I missing the trick, or is a feature request in order?

Cheers

Yoga

Check View|Traceability
Default the classifier relations are not enabled, but there's a settings button on the view you can use to enable it.

Thanks again Geert - helpful as always.
Though valuable, I want to be able to just navigate whether I have the traceability view open or not. Ctrl-Alt-G from instance in browser surely should navigate the classifier?
Cheers!

Yes, that would be consistent with the behavior of a selected object in the diagram and a valuable addition.  ;D

I'll submit a feature request, referencing this thread.

Anyone wants to add support, give Karma ;-)

Feature request submitted and Sparx considering for future release. In the meantime, remember to use Geert's valuable workaround.  :)
