Hi, is it possible copying any view from a model to another one? I'm trying but the paste function is not active.
Any suggestion is welcomed

Regards

Giancarlo

Select all objects in the source model's view and copy them. Paste them to a blank view in the target model.

Hi,

There is no 'one step' way of doing it. The best solution is to use the new model import feature of Archi 4.7: you create a copy of the model containing the view, you remove everything but the view (a small jArchi script can help, such as my 'Delete unused elements and relationships' script that you can find on Gist) then you select your target model and run File > Import > Import another model into selected model.

Regards,

JB

thank you, I have to upgrade to the 4.7 Archi release and then I'll try the procedure you described. Regards
