Building a Rational Rhapsody ReporterPLUS template for a specific model

Although you can use generic elements when you build a IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® ReporterPLUS template so that you can use it with any IBM Rational Rhapsody model, it is possible to use model elements to build a template for use with a specific model.

Procedure

  1. Open the model for which you want to create the template.
  2. Locate the model elements (in blue text) in the model view.
  3. Drag the specific model elements to the template view.

Results

The rest of the procedures—adding attributes, text, and formatting—are the same as for generic elements.

Note: Even when you are designing a template for a specific model, it is more efficient to use generic elements rather than model elements. To change a model element node from specific to generic, clear the contents in the Conditions tab.
