Hi,

I would like to know if there's a way to change a property of multiple selected elements at once. In my specific case I want to change the stereotype of a number of use cases in one go, instead of having to open the properties page of each use case separately.

Thanx in advance
Rick

At the moment,it can be done with a simple JScript / VBScript in EA's internal scripting engine,

(Batch edit is only possible using the 'Update Package Status', which allows users to  modify the status, phase, version, date.)

Rick,

The easiest to do so is in the list view.
You can show either the contents of a package, or a diagram as a list.
That allows you to, relatively quickly change the stereotypes.
If you need to change more then you might want to considers scripts or the likes.

Geert,
the list view does indeed make it a lot easier to 'bulk' change a property. Thanx for the tip!
