Show tags in diagram problem
« on: April 30, 2010, 07:07:50 am »
I created a component diagram and added a component. I then added a tag and value. Next, I used the diagram properties dialog to enable eleement tag visibility. The tag became visible. I selected the element in the diagram and BAM! The element expanded downwards continuously until I deleted it from the diagram. It was slightly comical to watch the vertical slider getting smaller and smaller... I repeated the problem using the context menu feature visibility path as well. The problem has been reported to Sparx.

Just got this from Sparx:
It appears the issue occurs for Packaging Components only but also occurs when enabling other compartments such as Notes and Responsibilities.
Unfortunately we have not found any current workaround (other than not displaying these compartments).

I have encountered the same problem.  I added a component to a diagram, then created 4 tags to the component.  When I changed feature visibility on the component to show tags, it began stretching the height of the component to infinity.  I was able to right mouse click on the component and turn the feature off, which was slow because it appeared to still be working hard to stretch the component at that time.  Then, with the component and a smaller object selected, I had EA size the component to the size of the smaller object, which it did.  As soon as I go back in and try to turn tag visibility back on, it starts stretching the component again.  I have not been able to display the tags, and keep the component to a usable size.
