Title: RE: (ROSE) How to edit information in diagram's footer?

Patrick,

 

Thank you for the information.

Only thing that I can say about this defect (and about 100 similar defects in Rose) is

"Unbelievable ....". Not a lot of software development companies could get away with

all this stuff ... But Rational does, and not without some elegancy ... Very admirable.

Thank you again.

 

David Lyalin

 

P.S. Perhaps, I (again!) don't understand something regarding Rational strategy.

But please, don't respond on this with information that all defects are prioritized

and eventually will be addressed ... I have heard it to many times over the years.

QUESTION:
Is there an option to suppress print headers and footers when printing?
Use to be in older versions of Rose.

ANSWER:

Sorry but you are running up against an open defect:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
DefectID: 8646 : Cannot choose to turn off print header or footer             
Priority _______ 2 - High Attention
Severity _______ 2 - Major
Type ___________ defect
State __________ assigned
Notes::

Also cannot choose to turn off the page numbers.

This all was possible in Rose 98i.
Please bring this back.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Currently there is no workaround, short of using one of
the following options to print the diagram:

#1#

 Use Tools:Web Publisher to output diagrams to your Browser
 and print from the Browser.

#2#

 http://www.rationalrose.com/addins/rosegraph.htm

 RoseGraph is an application designed to export diagrams from Rational
 Rose (v98 and higher) to different graphic file formats. This program
 is being provided as a free-ware for public use.

#3#

 Use a script to move diagrams into Word:

 ' Example script - copy class diagrams into word
 ' copies all the class diagrams into word 95 in
 ' hierarchical order with their names. You'll probably need to
 ' change the template and output filenames.

 Const namePrefix = "Component View::"
 Const toolName = "cg"

 Sub CopyDiagram(wordApp As Object, diagram As Diagram)
        wordApp.Insert diagram.Name
        diagram.RenderToClipboard
        wordApp.EditPaste
 End Sub

 Sub DescendLogical(wordApp As Object, category As Category)
        wordApp.Insert category.Name

        For diagramIndex=1 To category.ClassDiagrams.Count
                CopyDiagram wordApp,
 Category.ClassDiagrams.GetAt(diagramIndex)
        Next

        For categoryIndex=1 To category.Categories.Count
                DescendLogical wordApp,
 category.Categories.GetAt(categoryIndex)
        Next
 End Sub

 Sub Main
        Dim wordApp As Object
        Set wordApp = CreateObject ("Word.Basic")

        wordApp.FileNew "c:\msoffice\templates\normal.dot"
        wordApp.ViewPage
        'wordApp.AppMinimize
        wordApp.StartOfDocument

        DescendLogical wordApp, RoseApp.CurrentModel.RootCategory

        wordApp.EndOfDocument

        wordApp.FileSaveAs "c:\tmp\test.doc"

        wordApp.AppMaximize
        wordApp.AppShow

        'wordApp.FileExit
 End Sub
