RTF document general sections
« on: January 04, 2013, 03:45:07 am »
Hello,

Traditionaly, requirements/design documents start with sections such as:

1. Scope
1.1 Identification
1.2 Intented use of the sub-system
1.3 Background
1.4 Document Overview
2. Applicable documents and definitions
2.1 Applicable and referenced documents
2.1.1 Applicable Documents
2.2 Definitions, acronyms and abbreviations
2.2.1 Definitions
2.2.2 Acronyms
2.2.3 Abbreviations

[ch8195]I want to be able to populate these sections using a RTF template.
No problem to create the section in the RTF template creation tool, but can you make the content specific to a given project. (My 2.2 section could be generated from the project glossary.)

Would you create "dummy" packages for each section with noteshosting the paragraph content?

Are there more elegant ways to do this?

Thanks

Hi, i hope you had a nice start for the new Year.

In my case it is really build up the dummy packages, but you could also make some model documents for it. But what is wrong with using packages? They are structured, consistent to themselves and userfriendly ;D
My general advice ( tool-independend): "Delete - if you don't need it."

So every Package has its intention and isd filled with some content.

Best regards
