Separating diagrams in a package

[DaveMere]

Hi there,

I'm working on a project to model the work of several different professionals. I intend to produce multiple diagrams for each; say an activity diagram, an analysis and a use case diagram. There are two points I could use help with

1) How do I keep these separate in one instance of EA? I'd like to have the diagrams first divided into folders by person "Mr A", "Mr B" then again by diagram type, preferably keeping the elements of each diagram in different folders so I can keep track of them. Is this done by packages? The help files aren't really helping.

2) My diagrams are currently split over different instances of EA. I've tried importing them into one instance, but it raises conflicts. How can I import multiple diagrams into one instance and keep them seperate from each other?

thanks

Dave

Any ideas, expert UMLers? How do I separate out diagrams within one instance of EA? Opening new instances is starting to become a pain . . .

thanks

Yes, this could be done by packages.

I think you have created your projects by copying eap files. This mean your elements has the same GUIDs. Use the option "Strip GUIDs" while importing.
