This page is aimed to IBM Rhapsody Model Manager (RMM) users to let them know which elements can be dragged/copied and dropped/pasted into the ${local-app-connector} linking wizard, as well as some limitations the application has using it.

In RMM, all architecture elements being a link can be dragged and dropped into the linking wizard, some common cases/places are:

• The Designs Explorer.
• The Designs Explorer Preview.
• Diagram Breadcrumbs.
• Relations panel.
• Browser Addresses bar.

None of above views support multiple selection, so drag and drop of architecture elements must be done one by one.

Whenever the Diagram Breadcrumbs is visible, there is a link icon next each breadcrumb that opens the Copy Link dialog when pressed. This can be used to copy the architecture element URL into the clipboard and paste it into the linking wizard using Ctrl + V.

Global Configurations Compatibility

RMM projects can work with or without the use of Global Configurations. Different rules apply depending on this setting:

• When Global Configurations are disabled, no Global Configuration must be locally used in ${local-app} or the linking won't be accepted.
• When Global Configurations are enabled, the rule about Global Configurations in the parent topic applies: if the dropped/pasted requirement does not exist in the configuration used by ${local-app}, the linking is not accepted.

Thanks to the latter rule, the following scenario is valid:

• When the architecture element configuration is the local configuration referenced by the ${local-app}'s Global Configuration.
