System Architect provides DOORS filters that let you show or hide objects based on their status, as it relates to DOORS. By default, the filter displays all DOORS objects. This filter is available in addition to the Access Control filters.
Since only one filter can be active at any one time, changing the qualifications of one filter overrides the qualifications set in another. You can use the Reset Filters option from the Explorer to reset all filters to their default values.
To set the DOORS status filters
1 Right-click the System Architect Explorer, and then click DOORS Filters.
DOORS-enabled objects can have any of the statuses shown in the Set Doors Filters dialog below:
2 Select the DOORS filters you want to apply. The dialog shows the objects to be viewed as a result of the filters you have chosen.
3 Click Set filter. The Explorer displays only those objects you chose through the filter and a description of the filters currently in effect. Those objects which have been sent to DOORS display a closed door icon, and those objects that are to be sent display an arrow and a partially open door.
Note If an object has already been sent to DOORS, but you have remarked it ‘to be sent’ to DOORS again, these objects will appear in the Explorer with a partially closed door icon.
To reset all filters to their default values, right-click the System Architect browser and select Reset Filters. This function is only enabled if you have made changes to the Access Control filters or the DOORS filters.
