Hi,
Core Question: Is there another editor than Papyrus' core editor, that would give me visibility into the meta data the diagrams have and the 'core' editor uses to display the content?
I searched the Wiki - yet couldn't find a way to help debug an issue I am having.
Background: Generally I export the diagrams I have in Papyrus out, and put into a design document. (I can describe why if you would like). When exporting often the model validation routines will catch diagramming errors. Often these errors produce exceptions in Java with call-stacks, and at times the net result is a diagram content will change (disconnected dependencies, etc). I've been dealing with this for years, yet...
Is there another editor than Papyrus' core editor, that would give me visibility into the meta data the diagrams have and the 'core' editor uses to display the content?
I would like to explore the errors one layer lower, to help me fix the diagram. Some of these diagrams are for products, and while "it's always easier the second time" and I could redraw the diagram - it would helpful to me if I could dive one level lower. I tried going into Model Explorer, though, was trying to understand if there is a layer lower that I could use as well.

Hello, you can open the Papyrus View 'Model Validation' side by side with the 'Property View' (to avoid having to switch from one view tab to another).
By double-clicking on a validation error it should select the corresponding element in the ModelExplorer. Youwill then need to select this element yourself to display the corresponding Property View.
I agree that Papyrus should provide a better synchronization between ModelExplorer/Model Validation/PropertyView.
The ModelExplorer provides a button called 'Link with Editor' to propagate the selection of the ModelExplorer to the Diagram (and vice-versa).
HTH,
