Hi Barry,
Thank you for your post. The name “Candidate Class” sounds confusing. I will let our engineers know about it. Regarding the extraction of candidate model element, currently we only support the most common types. I will again share your suggestion with our team. In the meantime, you may consider to achieve that through the use of Glossary Grid as a workaround. Here are the steps:
-
In the text, right click on the word(s) from which you want to derive a model element.
-
Select Add “${word}” as Glossary Term and Transit to New Model Element…"
-
In the Glossary Term window, uncheck “Filter based on active diagram palette”
-
Select the type of element you want to create from the Transit to New Model Element drop-down menu.
-
Click OK to confirm
You will then see the word(s) being underlined in textual analysis. Press and hold the Ctrl button, and click on the word(s). This will bring you to the glossary grid where the terms are listed, which includes the word(s) you just selected. Besides the term, a model element has also been created. You can find it under the Model Explorer (View > Panes > Model Explorer)
Hope the information has helped. Feel free to contact us again if you have any questions.
Best regards,
Jick Yeung
