General Board / Re: Add default tag values for requirements

« on: October 08, 2019, 12:41:01 pm »

Hi jepessen,

If you are using EA Connector for Redmine, you do not need to add the Tagged Values by modifying the Attribute Mapping rule.

For example,

Delete following line:
TaggedValue(RedmineTracker),<->,Tracker

Add following 2 lines:
TaggedValue(RedmineTracker),<=>,Tracker
"Tracker Default Name",+>,Tracker

here, you need to apply your own default value to "Tracker Default Name".


You do not need to add other Tagged Values for new Requirements by adding more Attbiute Mapping rule like above.

If you have any question about the Attribute Mapping, please email to global@sparxsystems.jp

Hi all,

When EA imports and exports CSV files, EA uses the following setting as CSV file codepage. Specifying your codepage and then import/export would be successful.

Configure ribbon | Model panel | Options button | Source Code Engineering group | Code page for source editing

General Board / Re: Where is 'set as icon' option in EA 15 for Image assets?

« on: September 02, 2019, 03:52:45 pm »

Hello Arquesoft,

To use the option, the target object must be Custom Style.

Right-click the target object in a diagram and select 'Appearance' | 'Enable Custom Draw Style', and then try again.

General Board / Re: Cannot generate ARXML using Lieber Lieber plug-in

« on: August 29, 2019, 03:30:52 pm »

Hi mse,

If I remember correctly, ARXML import/export is separated product (i.e. it is not included in Enterprise Architect). You should ask LieberLieber.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Datatype mapping table - where?

« on: July 19, 2019, 12:56:42 pm »

Hello qwerty,

You can find the dialog and the button in version 14.1 via:
Configure ribbon | Reference Data panel | Settings button | Database Datatypes... menu item | Datatype Map button

I do not know when the feature was implemented, but v13 might have this button.

General Board / Re: Duplication of Objects on Shallow Diagram Copy - Can this be changed?

« on: July 08, 2019, 06:11:43 pm »

Hi all,

The behaviour which Rich said can be reproduced for Objects in Object diagrams and Sequence Lifelines in Sequence diagrams.

If I understand correctly, there is no way to do 'shallow copy' for these 'instance' elements.

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

« on: July 03, 2019, 09:46:56 am »

Hello PeterHeintz,

The behaviour is the new feature which is added on build 1504.
If you double-click a hyperlink, a navigation icon etc. which can be navigated to another diagram, EA now opens the target diagram in the same diagram tab (i.e. replace with current diagram).

You can return the original diagram by pressing BackSpace key or <-(Left Arrow) icon on the diagram tab.

I do not know if there is an option to behave the same as older versions.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: EA V15 RC 1505 - Can't edit shapescript editor

« on: July 01, 2019, 11:33:58 am »

I guess about the issue Sunshine wrote:

- double-click an attribute  _image in a diagram or press F9 after selecting the attribute in a diagram (click a Class in a diagram, then click an attribute in the Class)
-> EA opens modal properties dialog - there is no '...' button at the Initial value cell

One of the solution is:
- select the Stereotyope class and press F9
-> EA opens the Feaures dockable window - there is '...' button in the list and you can open the editor

Hello,

If I understand correctly, ALT+Z shortcut is useful.
(For all objects in a diagram, Ctrl+A and then ALT+Z).

You can call this feature from the Ribbon, but I forget where it is.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Legend for any connector type

« on: March 19, 2019, 11:29:31 am »

Hi all,

On my machine (buiild 1429), if I NEVER touch or change the 'Applies to' dropdown list and set other settings (e.g. colours, etc.), the target connector type will be treated as 'All'. Please do not click, select or change the Type

If you already 'touch' the 'Applies to' dropdown list, you need to delete the Legend and create a new Legend.

General Board / Re: Smart Placement Guides ... not working consistently?

« on: February 19, 2019, 11:45:21 am »

Hi all,

Now targets of the smart placement must be the 'same level' - i.e. if an element is direct on the diagram and another is child element (on other element), there is no blue line between them.

In similar case, in an Activity diagram if an object is on a Partition (Lane) and another object is on different Partition, there is no blue line between them.

Maybe this is why you can not see the line in some cases.


I can't agree more about support for the spacing and selecting mutliple objects.

General Board / Re: Showing Constraints

« on: January 09, 2019, 05:40:46 pm »

Hi all,

The following steps might be workaround:

1. add a Tagged Value which name is 'xUML' to the attribute
(i.e. open the Tagged Value window, then select the attribute and then add a new Tagged Value 'xUML')
2. set its value to what you want to display in the diagram (e.g. "{SomeCostraint}")
