[Feature Request] Access the model tree path location of a view using Labels #752

Open Manj75 opened 3 years ago

Manj75 commented 3 years ago

Using the Label tab the view's full path can be displayed in an element, e.g. in a Note element that is part of a view summary box.

If I had a view diagram called ArchiApplication in any folder structure, such as:

ModelName
  Views
     MyFolder
       ArchiApplication

In the ArchiApplication view I can show a Note element that gets populated with 'ModelName\Views\MyFolder' based on the usage in Label functionality.

As a suggestion on the Properties -> Label enter: $view{fullpath}

It would be better to have this as proposed. I know this can be achieved using a jArchi script but the issue is that it always has to be explicitly run each time, better to have this natively supported.
