Operating System

Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042

Expected Behaviour

I created a "is composed of" relation between Interfaces.
The label of the referening concept is set to "$composition:source{name}". When I copy the referencing concept and past it as reference into the view, the label should still resolve and show the information from the source concept.

Actual Behaviour

The reference in the label expression is resolved and shown only, when the source and the referencing concept are visible with the reference between them.

Steps to Reproduce the Behaviour

  1. Create 2 interfaces.
  2. Create comopsition between them.
  3. Add label "$composition:source{name}" to the referencing concept
  4. Copy the referencing concept
  5. Past it as reference => the label does not show the source name even though the reference between the concepts exists in the model.

Label expression is not resolved when referencing concept is shown without the reference to the source concept

The reference in the label expression is resolved and shown only, when the source and the referencing concept are visible with the reference between them.

This is by design. Label expressions are applied to a View's components and so source and target are calculated based on the connections that are present not the underlying model relations.

It might be possible to implement the behaviour you are missing by adding an additional prefix like <relationship>:msource or <relationship>:mtarget that would return any underlying model relationship rather than only if a connection exists on the View.

Hello, thank you for your quick response.

So mparent and vparent, msource and vsource, mtarget and vtarget would fit into this schema, isn't it?
Prefix m would mean: show it; while v would mean: show it only, if also shown in the current view.

It would be helpful allowing to use the name of a relationship. So far, you support the use of relationship types (e.g., triggering). For example, I name the composition relationship "plugged into" and I can use something like $composition|plugged into|:msource{property:key}

Additonally, it would be great to have that value compositon feature available for the values of the properties of a concept. Not only for the label of a concept. May be with a switch per property to turn it on/off for performance.

With kind regards, Olav

I've come across this constraint myself a few times.

Label expressions are a great idea, but if you can only pull data from other elements that actually visible on the diagram, it reduces their utility quite a bit.

I can see the constraint around trying to ensure you have something unique though. One sort-of hack, I wonder whether could be supported is where it'd be able to support any arbitrary JArchi expression that returns a single text value? With the element the label is for being the $(element) that is the starting point. That would be super useful.

I've opened #972 so I'll close this one.
