RTF report for a single diagram
« on: December 13, 2007, 03:19:11 am »
I am able to generate an RTF report for a package, but not for a single diagram (and all the elements referenced in that diagram), within a package containing several diagrams and elements.

Is there any shortcut for this?

Thanks

Massimo

A workaround only:
Drag&drop your diagram somewhere else and ensure you have "Document each contained element in RTF" checked.
Not good, but working.
This lead me to use more structured repository. Nowadays I have a package for nearly everything.

Massimo,

can I suggest that you take a look at Time Architect?

http://solutionsreality.com/products/timearchitect/home.aspx

We have just released the sneak peak of version 2.0 that includes element move functionality.

With this you can select elements from anywhere in your model (via the grid interface) and move those elements to a different package/diagram or you can just copy the elements straight to a diagram.

You could then use the EA functionality to either document just that package, or for the diagram only.  This method also allows you to actually pick the elements on a diagram that you want to document.

It also adds lots of other functionality to - take a look around the website for full details...

I think that you should find that this does exactly what you are looking for!

The fully functional evaluation version lasts 20 days so this should give you a chance to fully try it!  It is still at the special introductory price of $100 - so give it a try...
