Small request: Version info in project browser

[Michael Hafner]

Dear all,
a small request: It would be great to be able to optionally show version/phase/status info in the project browser (possible with stereotypes).

Although I think this makes sense (to augment the browser with various display options) I don't have much hope to see this realized in a near future. The browser looks the same since many years and has ignored many feature request without being bothered at all.

Pity... - Usually, when thinking,  "now, wouldn't it be nice if Enterprise Architect could [do this 'n that]...", I start browsing the documentation, and, bada bing!; turns out, it can [do this 'n that] already.

Hi Michael,


I agree with you that this would be a useful feature, but many modelling teams out there don't use the version field at all.

So let's follow qwerty's advice and make it a more generic function; say that the information shown in the project browser should be configurable, allowing you to select version, status, author, phase, stereotype, etc. (And please, please, an indication of baselines similar to the version control icons please please?).

With that sort of function, I think more people would support it.

It would be more work, but Sparxians aren't ones to back down from a challenge, are you lads?

I don't think they are those lay back guys. But I have the impression that too often they mend the wrong leakages. Namely those visible above the water line and not those below. Too much advertising stuff...

@Uffe: Great idea. I go along with it.
