I am working with a DOORS database that currently has 3 levels of documents in our trace structure. The lowest level traces to the mid-levle document and the mid-level traces to the highest (customer-level) document. I can perform a traceability analysis to see how an object in the lowest level links to an object in the customer-levle document - but I can't get all the attributes I want to view in that column to display - it doesn't seem to include attributes in the lower level documents in the list of displayable attributes when I run the wizard. Is there a fix for this or does someone know if this is something I could use DXL to fix (and what code to use while you're at it)?

As far as I remember, the wizard only displays attributes that are available for all modules, so you will not be able to display attributes that are specific to a particular module.
What you can do is edit the layout DXL that the wizard generates. Right click on the column header, select Properties. Then click Browse, click Current. This opens the DXL for editing. Find the code that looks something like this: s = othero."Absolute Number" ": " othero."Object Text" "" disp = disp " " s Add the following for your other attributes: s = probeAttr_(othero, "My Attribute") disp = disp " " s Note that I use probeAttr_ rather than reading the attribute directly - this prevents errors if the attribute does not exist. ------------------------- Tony Goodman http://www.smartdxl.com |
