Title: Linked elements not shown in Report
Post by: michielper on July 19, 2016, 09:17:28 pm

When I open an element (im using Archimate), it shows the other elements with which it is linked. However, in the Document generator, this information cannot be included!! Why not??

It can.  Are you talking about one of the canned templates specifically?

Ok, let me explain.
I want a report that lists all the elements matching my search query (e.g. based on a name match) and then with each element, I also want to have the names of the elements to which it is connected, preferably also the type and direction of the connector involved. I have not yet found a way to do this in a report while all this information is visible when you open the element properties.

Thanks for any help!

So it sounds like the search part needs to be some kind of "fragment", I haven't played with these so i can't comment.  The linked elements is a standard part of the document template.
