Enterprise Architect UI suggestions
« on: October 01, 2002, 03:47:18 am »
hi,

      This is my first day with EA.

       The first thing that bothered me while creating a Use case diagram is traversing the icons for various model elements.

        Once I go into a section lets say Use case there are about 20 icons vertically listed.

        I select an actor, go a little down select a UC , then go to the end and select a association.

         If I need to create another UC and association I need to click on the buttons umpteen number of times as there is no scrolling facility out there through thumb track.

        Interesting and silly observation on my part isn't it.

Another observation is the color combinations are really cool and soothing. Congratulations to the EA team.  8)

Hello,

It sounds like you unfortunately have a small monitor set to a low resolution (640 x 480, 800 x 600).  Fortunately, I am able to see all 10 UC elements on my Outlook Toolbar.  One suggestion is to use the small Icons.  You can do this by opening the application properties dialog by navigating to the view menu and selecting Options...  From there, select Outlook Toolbar and check the options you want.

BTW, cool lion.
