One of the Drag and Drop Actions in UBIK 3.7.1 and above is the automatic creation of new MetaClass Scope.


[edit]

Instructions

Trigger

It can be triggered by dragging a MetaClass onto a Context. Confirm your decision to create a MetaClassScope by clicking on the upcoming context menu item "Fully create scope".

Link property selection

There are three possible outcomes for the choice of the link property:

  1. If there does not exist any fitting reference link property on the dragged MetaClass you will get a warning message that you will have to create one and enter its name into the “Reference” property of the just created ReferenceViewItem manually.
  2. If there already is a fitting link property on the dragged MetaClass, this one will be used automatically.
  3. If more than one fitting link property exist, you will be asked which one you want to use as reference. You can select one by clicking on its Radiobutton (you can only select one item) then confirm your choice with "OK". If you do not want to use one of these properties you can just close the window and the Reference property of the ReferenceViewItem will be left empty.

View selection

After that a second Window will appear where you can choose multiple existing Views to which you want to add the just created ReferenceViewItem by checking them and confirming with the "OK" button. If you do not want to add the ReferenceViewItem to a View, you can just close the window.

The process is done and a ReferenceViewItem is created and added to the Views automatically. The changes are saved automatically.
