I'm having some problems maintaining Visio diagrams that live in Doors as OLEs. Specifically, this is for UML diagrams, where I can't edit properties of an object/element (its attributes, names, multiplicity etc). It's fine when initially creating, but during later update right-clicking properties etc does nothing. |
Re: Problems edit Visio OLEs Best workaround I have to date is to create a new word document, paste the OLE into it, save the word document. Then in DOORS create the OLE object from the word document. Repeat for each OLE. Then to edit the image in DOORS you select once to get the word part open, and agin to get the Visio part open. It's very tedious if you have a lot of OLE's, but does make you think about what will actually need to be edited from within DOORS. A few years ago I had no problems with DOORS 7, Windows 2000, and Visio 5. Now with DOORS7, and DOORS 8, Windows XP, Visio 2002 I get all sorts of problems. I suspect its 'enhancements' creeping in at low levels causing the pain. |
