Legend for any connector type
« on: January 28, 2019, 11:47:18 pm »
In EA v13 it was possible to set up a Legend for all connector types at once.
Current version (14.1.1427) doesn't offer "All" option in drop list, while still does it for elements.

Is it a bug or a feature? How to cope with this?

Yeah!   I've just been hit by this!

Still not fixed in build 1429.  Is there anything we can do in the DB direct as a workaround until the fix comes in?

Ha... in addition to this bug, EA doesn't apply the legend to Information Flow connector. I didn't checked others (except of association).
It's a shame really.

Hi all,

On my machine (buiild 1429), if I NEVER touch or change the 'Applies to' dropdown list and set other settings (e.g. colours, etc.), the target connector type will be treated as 'All'. Please do not click, select or change the Type

If you already 'touch' the 'Applies to' dropdown list, you need to delete the Legend and create a new Legend.

HTH,

Hello,
I try to create a Legend that will auto color "Aggregation" or " Realization" as described in following Sparx Tutorial

Skip to Minute 1:19

https://youtu.be/wFjTi5CXWII?t=79

Legend/Connector/ Filter : Connector.Type
Applies to: <All>

"Applies to: <All> " is not existing in EA v1526 - so I am not able to have Realization and Aggregation in one Legend.

Can anyone help me?

If I create a new Legend go to Connector Tab Applies To: is allready filed with "Abstraction"
