property hide_from_export = true - doesn't hide the element, folder or view from the export

[InceptusSolutions]

All my models show this behaviour (I have only just found out you are supposed to be able to hide elements)

Version of Archi

4.10 (Also 4.9.3)

Archi Plug-ins

jArchi CoArchi Lightbox Excel

Operating System

Windows 11

Expected Behaviour

property hide_from_export set to "true" is supposed to hide the view or element or folder from the HTML report but it doesn't

Actual Behaviour

The view, element or folder shows up in the model explorer in the HTML

Steps to Reproduce the Behaviour

1. add property "hide_from_export" to a view, folder or model element
2. set value of the property to true
3. run the report HTML (file > report > HTML) (or run the HTML preview)
4. the view, folder or model element still appear in the generated HTML report

~Hi, the property (and others) applies to Jasper reports, not HTML reports.~

No, this one in particular does target the HTML report, but it should start and end by underscore (_hide_from_export_)

Thanks. Just as a note the documentation (Archi User Guide) page 99 is missing the leading and trailing underscores for the property.

That's fixed in Archi 4.10 user guide.

See #838

Yep, I keep getting these mixed up.

Assuming that _hide_from_export_ works, close this.
