Import a diagram (.xml)
« on: December 07, 2023, 02:43:42 am »
Hello network,

I have a problem while importing a .xml from a project to another one.
Even if the SysML is correctly imported, the images are not copied leaving a white rectangle w/o any content inside.
It seems that only the dimension of the picture has been imported but not the content.
Any idea?

You can't import diagrams, you can only import packages.

If the elements on your diagram are located somewhere else, they won't be included in the xml export.

Yes, correct. I`m importing package but the images remain blank w/o content.
Any idea to import also the content of the images while importing a package?

Do you by any chance mean image (png, etc.) data?

There's an option in the XML export settings somewhere (use a machete to find your way through the options jungle - good luck).
