Re: hiding connections

[Michael Ross <michael e ross gmail com>]

You can move them to another layer.  Select the items, hit ctrl-X activate the layer you want to put them on and hit ctrl-V.   I don't know if the connections are maintained  - probably not.  You could turn them off though.  This would be useful for exporting parsed views.

You could also get back with undo's.

Another way is to create temporary sparse views is to copy the whole DIa to another location or file (ctrl-C, ctrl-V), Then delete the parts you don't want to see.

Hi there. 

Great tool!

1. Is there a way to selectively hide some of the lines/connections between objects? It would be nice to hide some complexity or even show different scenarios on the same diagram by switching layers or some other feature. Layers do not work for this as you need both the boxes and lines on the same layer.

Thanks,

Eric
