PM85689: 'Reporter on selected package...' generated document does not include dependent activity diagrams.

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• Headline:
  
  'Reporter on selected package...' generated document does not
  include dependent activity diagrams.
  
  Abstract:
  
  Attempts to generate a word document using ReporterPLUS's
  'Reporter on selected package...' feature results in the
  generated document missing dependent activity diagrams.
  
  Description:
  
  It is observed that when we try to generate a word document
  using the 'Reporter on selected package...' feature the
  dependent activity diagrams are not populated in the generated
  document. The same template however works good, i.e. the
  dependent activity diagrams are correctly generated when using
  the 'Report on all model elements...' feature.
  
  Workaround:
  
  There is no known workaround at this time.

Problem conclusion

• Hi Ashirbad
  
  You claim the customer said that "OMDs from different
  packages are loaded even if the report generation is done
  for another selected package. If it's
  possible for OMDs, I think it should be also for activity
  diagrams, statecharts."
  
  But this is not accurate.
  If the OMD is under the package - Reporter+ creates the
  image. The elements that are in the diagram that are not
  under the package are not loaded - Reporter+ simply pains
  them.
  
  In the image below : If user create a report for package P1
  only - then P2 (and class C2) are not loaded. The OMD is
  loaded - and C2 is merely painted.
  
  A hyperlink is a whole different thing. Customer wants to
  load it target completely, in order to create the report
  correctly. This is a new ability, not a defect.
   (see image  attached)
