No list of Diagram Elements in Collaboration

[Richard Lay]

Could it be that the list of elements in a diagram, that show in the generated Word document, do not get generated in the collaboration html?
Using a diagram allows a subset of the elements to be shown (like a view) so that parts of a larger model can be reviewed separately.
The alternative to this is adding a section for each element and having them turned on and off for each view. I do not want too many sections.

Hi Richard,
I just tried this, and it seems to generate correctly in a Collaboration Edition document.
What I did:
1. created a Package, with 3 diagrams, each containing some elements.
2. moved those elements to another package (to make it a sensible test)
3. just printed the package with the 3 diagrams.
4. I got just the diagrams – as expected –
5. when I specified ‘print diagram and contents’, I again got just the diagrams – again, as expected – because there was no profile for the elements.
6. So, I created profiles for the missing element types, and now the diagram & contents get printed OK.
Maybe you missed the last step ?

I create a package, and in it a diagram. On the diagram I put 4 classes. The are created in the package. So much for the Sparx stuff.
In eaDocX I create a Word document and insert the diagram. I have a profile for Class that just shows the Name. In the Preview> Diagram options.. I pick Diagram and all contents.
Then Generate the eaDocX and I get the Diagram and the 4 names underneath… beauty.
Then enable the document and generate the html.
When I review in browser, the diagram is in the collaboration page but not the names of the elements.
Hope you can re-create.
