Link Menu

The popup menu on Links contains the following commands:

Edit is used  to edit the attributes of the selected Traceability Link.

Edit Requirements Object edits the Requirements object that corresponds to the selected Traceability Link. If you want to open the object in view mode select the object itself and use the View command. Note that this command is not available for Control Specifications because you cannot edit a Control Specification directly. Select a Sheet of the Control Specification instead.

Nodes: Edit Requirements Object will open the Flow Diagram Editor containing the parent diagram of the selected Node.

Edit Modular Design Objects edits the Modular Design object that corresponds to the selected Traceability Link. If you want to open the object in view mode select the object itself and use the View command.

Subsystems and Modules: The chart is opened. If you want to open the textual representation select the object itself and use the Edit command.

Delete. You can delete any Traceability Link regardless of whether it is user defined or Draft Designer defined. If you run the Draft Designer, Traceability Links are created (based on the transformation rules) for every transformed object that did not already have a Traceability Link.Because you can only link existing objects, the Traceability Link is also deleted if you delete one of the linked objects.

Note: If you create your own Traceability Links and delete automatically generated Traceability Links, it is a good idea to run the Analyzer to check that each object still has a Traceability Link.
