How EA stores the visibility of diagram objects 1v2

Filed under EA FAQs, How To

Via ‘Feature Visibilty’ (right-click any diagramobject), you can set visibility of operations, but also attributes by scope.
As this is done on the diagramobjects, I took a closer look on the t_diagramobjects table. It has pretty few columns, so it had to be stored in the ObjectStyle property.

If you want to hide attributes having public scope, this is, what is appended:
AttPub=0;

Please note, that setting the value to ’1′ means the same as removing the entry.

Here are the other scopes: AttPro=0;AttPri=0;AttPkg=0;

If you’re interested in operations: happy investigating!
