Embedded elements and diagram layouts

[Uffe]

Hi all,


Is it possible to get the diagram layout function to take ports and exposed interfaces into account?

I've got a model with components, ports and connectors between ports but not between the parent components. Ordering a diagram layout results in all the components being placed left-to-right as if there were no connectors at all.

There's an option "Layout uses all relations" and it's ticked, but it doesn't seem to do much good.
I've tried the different layouts in the toolbar, but they're undocumented and none of them seems to look at relationships between embedded elements.

Anyone?

No. The layout ignores ports. What I did in the past was to add a script that aligns two selected ports, respectively distribute ports on one side of an element when selected.

I know that Perl is write-only, but I tried to write it in a way one can read: http://liquit.biz/brain/enterprise.html

I prefer to say that PERL is well, WORN.
