General Archi Discussion / Re: Technology cross location not possible?
« Last post by Trax on December 11, 2018, 09:49:59 AM »Thanks Jb!
First solution can create misunderstanding because it could be a second instance of the service...
Second is better, but not easy to do beacause when your cursor is over another object, it create nested relation.
There's no option to disable this?
May be few RFC for the next version of Archi :
Allow Connector to be invisible
Allow to disable "auto-nest"
Create a shortcut to move object (not found in the documentation)
Many thanks,

That's way better with an illustration ;-)
When you've moved the service inside the Location it has been nested, meaning that it is now visually part of the first location. That's the reason why when you resize it, it is clipped inside the location.
You have two solution to solve your issue:
(1) you add again the same service inside the 2nd location. You can do this by selecting the service and then doing a "Copy" followed by a "Past Special" through the context menu. This will create a new visual object which is linked to the exact same service inside the model, meaning that any change on it will be reflected on both visual objects.
(2) you unnest the service by moving it outside the location, and then you resize it to appear on top of both location. Resizing it will not trigger the nesting mecanism. Drawback: you'll have to manage aggregation relationships manually (adding them to the model and removing them from the view) if you want a meaningful model.

JB

Why the TF does not appear over the second location?

I'm not sure to understand your point...
You can simply have both locations aggregate your service..

« Last post by Trax on December 10, 2018, 13:38:16 PM »Hi,
I'm not user-friendly with Archi, but I don't find how to link a Technology Service across two location ?
Use case : Stretched cluster!
How do to represent this kind of service?
Thanks,

General Archi Discussion / Anyone have Version 4.2.0 of the Windows Version of Archi?
« Last post by audreykoz on December 06, 2018, 19:30:39 PM »If so, could you attach it? We haven't moved to 4.3.0 yet and I'm creating a version on Github with my group's most used plugins. However, we've mostly used Macs and so I don't have the Windows equivalent.

General Archi Discussion / Re: Customizing HTML Report
« Last post by Jean-Baptiste Sarrodie on December 05, 2018, 19:30:02 PM »Hi,
There is no direct or simple way to force the default open page in the HTML report. You can of course change the generated HTML file (but would have to do it each time you generate the report). You can also change the template used to generate the report (look for stringtemplate in this forum to see how), but in this case you'll be only able to generate valid report for a single model because the change will hard-code the default page to the internal id of your default view.
re twitter: yes,this is the future version of the report but it has been on hold for some month (we had to switch to jArchi, the script plugin, and some other topics).

JB

General Archi Discussion / Customizing HTML Report
« Last post by Alberto on December 04, 2018, 19:01:27 PM »I typically use a canvas called Index as a landing page and starting point to my HTML reports. Is there a way to customize the HTML plugin(?) so that the src for the in ui-layout-center iframe is prepopulated with my Index UUID(.html) if there is one.
Also, I think I asked this before, is this a new HTML report? https://twitter.com/jbsarrodie/status/992473846727966720
