Bugs and Issues / Re: v16β – Direct line style has trouble with “line-ups” or “nudges”

« on: November 29, 2021, 11:10:17 am »

Hello Paolo,

The 'Auto Tidy' option might be disabled on the version 16. (in the 'Behaviour' group of the Preference dialog)

Preference are stored separetely between 32bit (e.g. v15.2) and 64bit.

Hi Geert,

If you use VisualStudio, please check whether CPU setting of the project is 'AnyCPU', not 'x86'.


Or, another possibility, you need to register by the following RegAsm. (if yours are .NET add-in)

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe

Hi Geert,

We need to add an entry to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Sparx Systems\EAAddins64
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sparx Systems\EAAddins

for 64bit EA.

Suggestions and Requests / Re: Change the default search to a custom MDG

« on: September 24, 2021, 12:03:14 pm »

Hi Paolo,

Yes, as you wrote, my idea is not replacing the default search rules. All of us know that currently there is no way to replace or refrain the default rules.

I failed to note that "By using the Add-in, users do not need to use EA's default Find feature. As a result, users do not need to see the default rules.".

Hi Guillaume,

You might already know, but you can call your own search by Repository.RunModelSearch().
On the current EA, it is a solution to create an add-in to call the searches. Users can call the searches from the Extention Ribbon.
(And further more, creating add-ins with <<javascriptaddin>> does not need to install DLLs.)

General Board / Re: Is displaying a Diagram Frame a missing feature?

« on: July 12, 2021, 07:11:59 pm »

Hello Mo,

Just for your information, in the UML specification, frames are optional, not mandatory (quoted from the specification 'As an option, it may have a frame and a heading as shown in Figure A.1.' in Annex A: Diagrams)

In the SysML specification, frames are mandatory. The SysML spec says 'The frame is a rectangle that is required for SysML diagrams (Note: the frame is optional in UML). '

So, some UML tools may have frames in UML, but EA is 100% legal in this point.

Hello Thelonius,

Have you tried MD Integration for Microsoft Office?
https://www.sparxsystems.com/products/mdg/int/office/office-integration.html
(You may need to convert CSV to Excel xlsx before importing.)

It might help your situation.

Hello Typia,

LemonTree could solve your problem. If I understand correctly, the latest LemonTree supports comparison between DBMS Repositories.
For detail, please ask to LieberLieber (developer of LemonTree).

Suggestions and Requests / Re: Assigning Names to Legends

« on: June 04, 2021, 12:01:25 pm »

Hello Thelonius,

Yes, you specified the Name, but the Name is not Name of common elements
The 'Name' is not stored as Name of common elements, but stored in any other place.

The Browser show the Name of common elements, so Legends in the Browser do not have name.

Please try as I posted.

Suggestions and Requests / Re: Assigning Names to Legends

Hello Thelonius、

You can assign legend's name by using the Properties dockable window. (Ctrl+2 to open the window on the latest version)
I agree that legends' name should be synchronized with legends' title.

And you can find a legend in the Browser from it in a diagram. Select a legend in a diagram and press Alt+G.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Output of python code generation..

« on: May 17, 2021, 10:26:58 am »

Hello KalpakD,

To generate Python attributes, you need to assign initial values.

Press Ctrl+5 to open the Feature window, then select the ClassA and enter some value to the Initial field. Then, generate source code again.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Where is ALT-Z gone

« on: April 19, 2021, 10:13:41 am »

Just FYI,

This is because 'Z' is a shortcut of the Specialize ribbon, so the first Alt+Z opens the ribbon.
In the Specialize ribbon, there is no item which shortcut key is 'Z', so the second Alt+Z is ignored by the ribbon, and EA itself accepts the shortcut and finally calls the feature as expected.

There is no workaround, so this is just information.
