Reports for the whole repository
« on: March 14, 2008, 02:40:28 am »
I think having the option to publish a report (rtf/HTML) for the whole repository is a must!
We use diferent root nodes for diferent modules of the project and it is certainly a srowback.
Recursion definition:
If you don’t understand the definition read "Recursion definition".

I think so too. After all, when you refer to 'the model' you are often referring to what's below the root node.

When you think about it, being able to report whatever you consider as 'the model' makes sense, so why this exception?
No, you can't have it!

Agreed.

Martin / David - on another note - have you found IE performance really slow when you publish a large HTML model with a really large project browser tree?

For example - I reverse engineered an org structure with >2600 elements in a composite actor hierarchy.  On IE 7the javascript that builds the tree took > 5 minutes to complete.  On Firefox 2 it only took 20 seconds (not great - but much better).  Safari even quicker.

Martin,

I have not noticed, but that's because I switched to Firefox a few years ago.

I'm not an anti-MS person; I just liked the feature set better. So I pretty much use IE where it is still necessary. Given that EA has been producing pretty good results in Firefox I've not checked the IE performance.

But I will - soon but not really soon. This is an issue. Often this kind of thing is a symptom of page design rather than browser speed.
