Bugs and Issues / V15: Is there a way to keep current diagram open after a diagram hop)

« on: July 11, 2019, 09:28:39 pm »

In V15 when you double-click on a diagram element, e.g. to open a composite diagram, the current diagram is closed. By an arrow you can move back to the original diagram.
In former version all diagrams are kept open.
If you navigate/hop to different parts of the "diagram hierarchy", before V15 you might end up with lots of diagrams opened, what is not so nice. Now only one diagram is open, what is nice if you used this hopping just to get to that diagram.

However I use this hopping most frequently to open at least two diagrams. One diagram I want to change and the others to look what I have to do. This more frequent use case (at least more frequent use case for me) worked fine for any version before V15.
To address both use cases, I would prefer a simple way to decide if I want to keep the current diagram open or not before I hop to the next.
If this is not possible for whatever reason, I would very much like if the V15 change would be cancelled.

What is the opinion of other users?

Bugs and Issues / Build 1505 seems only by capable to open one diagram

« on: July 02, 2019, 07:32:10 pm »

In build 1505 you can only browse one diagram not more. This is hopefully a bug and not a new feature.

This effect is only there, if you try opening diagrams by double click on diagram elements having composite diagrams assigned to.

Bugs and Issues / Stereotype Dialog is Faulty

« on: June 18, 2019, 09:40:52 pm »

The new stereotype dialog introduced in V14 seem to intend to address a better filtering of many stereotypes. However now setting stereotypes is more often a complex or even impossible search.
Example: In V14 in tried to change an object in an SysML activity diagram to a <<datastore>>, but I had to go to UML instead of SysML1.5 to do that. In build 1503 even in UML the <<datastore>> has gone. I have no idea how I can set my object to be a <<datastore>> in build 1503.

Please validate what is shown in the stereotype list associated to a Perspective/Profile.
Currently it is more or less useless.

Bugs and Issues / V15Beta Behaviour Properties Dialog Lost

« on: June 06, 2019, 08:41:10 pm »

When you double click e.g. on a “do” behaviour of an action in V14 the “Behaviour Properties” dialog opens. In build 1503 nothing happens.

Bugs and Issues / V15Beta Concept of compartment visibility seem to be invited

« on: June 06, 2019, 08:31:54 pm »

It is possible to define the compartment visibility either on diagram level or on element level. Former times, element level definition had highest priority (what makes sense). Not it seems that diagram level has highest priority (makes no sence).

Bugs and Issues / Activity Frame; Useless Auto Horizontal Resize

« on: June 05, 2019, 07:07:45 pm »

Seen in Build 1502

In a SysML activity diagram the diagram frame is made bigger in size each time something on the diagram is repositioned in any direction.

Bugs and Issues / State Machines; Concurrent Sate Regions: What a mess!!!!!!!

« on: June 04, 2019, 10:53:41 pm »

Seen in Build 1502 and 1428!

I tried to reduce the height of a SysML state machine frame, having concurrent state regions, a little bit. This caused the concurrent state regions repositioned vertically in a way that the states are not anymore in the right regions. Even worse the regions moved down and finally this diagram frame was higher in size rather than smaller. Each try to fix that, caused the regions to go deeper and deeper and the diagram frame height became higher and higher.

So I tried to fix that, with build 1428, but at the end I got a diagram frame covering over 50 pages in height.

The only way to get that fixed, was using V13, however moving 6 concurrent state regions over 50 pages up is really a imposition.

When you call a message in a classified lifeline within sequence diagrams and you give that message connector a note, the following problem occurs:

Within the Connector Properties”/Notes all works well, but if you look in the “Connector Notes“ the note of the lifeline classifier is shown.

Bugs and Issues / Element Author not equal t_object Author

« on: March 26, 2019, 08:08:05 pm »

I created elements in an eap repository with neither security enabled nor model authors inserted.
In this case EA sets the element author to my Windows user account.
Because of I want to import those model fragments to another repository with security enabled, I try to change the author in the original EAP file to my user name in the security enabled target repository.
This works for most elements and all elements show the Author as expected. However for ports in ports when doing an element query or looking in the eap file directly, my windows account value is still in t_Object:Author.
Any comments on this strange thing?

Bugs and Issues / MSSQL Connection Warning [-2147217900]

« on: October 10, 2018, 07:12:11 pm »

Hi,
a college of mine gets the following waring when connecting to MSSQL DBs:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server [-2147217900]
Incorrect syntax near the keyword ‘RowCount’

He gets this warning for both SQL repositories he connects too, but other users do not see this warning.
Further on, the warning seem not to have impacts on the work within EA.

Any ideas?

General Board / RTF Scale Diagrams over footer

« on: September 24, 2018, 08:14:13 pm »

When you render diagrams in rtf, those get somehow scaled to fit on a page. However when I have “long” diagrams those overlay my page footer.
Is there a way to avoid this?
