Diagram Filters - suggestion
« on: March 12, 2010, 06:18:35 pm »
Hello,

I have just found out the Diagram Filter functionality in a new EA version.
I think it's very usefull and important feature that could provide the way how to read complicated diagrams.
But as it seems it's possible to filter only by Element properties. I think it could be useful to filter by some properties of the concrete rendering of the element in the given diagram as well, since the purpose of the diagram could be to introduce some new elements, that are not distinguishable from the others by any property -- and we could want to emphasize these elements somehow (of course we can do it by e.g. another color now)
Another useful filter could be "In the same package as diagram".

Do you think it could be useful?

Hi Lubos,

I think these are both good ideas.  Formally submit a feature request using the links below...
