Thanks,
… I used UC hierarchy with auto-level numbering…. to get something like this:
UC1 – Base UseCase
UC1.1 – Derived UseCase 1
UC1.2 – Derived UseCase 2
… in RTF gerenation I user this level to put IDs to them…
… I suppose there is no option to do this in eaDocx… (Because there is no way to put some static string before prefix)…
(I am not asking this as a feature… EA should have usable Auto name counters… but it haven’t )
What I need is an option to “extract” diagrams from model. For me is filtering only by defining root package sufficient.
My case is following:
I have one main BPMN diagram. There are few activities. Many of them are “composite” – it means they have diagrams. (In EA, when you double click on them, they opens).
In fact, I don’t want to print details of any activity… all importat informations are included in diagram.
… I can also imagine a case, when some activity has some notes. This can by the case when I want to print details of the activity.
… so I think that the best way to cover those scenarios is to add “an switch” for profile of an element, that:
“you don’t wan’t to print the element at all, if you dont have anything to say about it”
… I meen that :
If
then dont print this element at all
than I could set profile only with diagrams in summary, and switch this option on.
In case I need to print Notes for those elements, I’ll add it into summary as an attribut.
But this is the most complex way how to do this:)
I thik that simply an diagram report option could be nice feature as well.
Ouch.
Sorry for that, it was my fault. I didn’t notice that these UseCases wasn’t included into my document. In RTF generation EA print these link even though. I was used to these links, so I didn’t check this .
(Actualy I was using this “feature” … they didn’t work, but only until i finalized whole document and paste there elements from another RTF generated document)
You obviously clean these links.
But another question comes with this. Why (or how) can’t I print “nested UseCases” ? I meen one UseCase is “under” another in project browser.
(As a matter of fact this is the reason why these UseCases wasn’t included into my document)
