Hi

Is it possible to import UI mockups in EA? or do i have to create in EA itself? or i can link the requiremnts to the documents which has these mockups?

The mockups are either in .png or .jpeg format?

Thanks

Use the Common/Image context menu (when you press space while a diagram is selected). Then you can import the image and link it (via trace) to requirements.

Maybe your version is too old? With V10 its in the Common submenu in the lower 2nd third. Alternatively add a boundary and use Appearance/Select Alternate Image from its context menu.

I am using version 9.3.

Where do I find that? In EA main menus or in the Screen Element?

It's the same in 9.3.

Hi

Is simple:

1) Create an Extended - User Interface Diagram
2) Add a screen from the UI Toolbox (or a Bounday like Qwerty says)
3) Right click - Appearance - "Apply image from Clipboard" or "Select Alternate Image"

Done

Hi

Importing UI mockups was working until today...today when i tried importing...it is saying "Unsupported file types" while the image files are .png or .bmp files which it was supporting previously..

What could be the reason for this??

Thanks

Maybe they aren't what they pretend to be. Have you opened them with a viewer?
