Apply Filter Dialog Box

The Apply Filter dialog box allows you to search for diagrams and specifications within your model. The filter is especially useful when you print diagrams from large models.

To print a specific diagram in a model, type in the name, type, or path of the diagram you are trying to print.

Name	Provides a list of all diagram names depending on search criteria.
Type	Provides a list of all diagram types depending on search criteria.
Path	Provides a list of each path for diagrams displayed.

Next, press the OK button to locate the diagram. Then, with the diagram selected, press OK from the Print dialog box to print the diagram.

To search for a diagram or a specification in the Apply Filter dialog box, you can use the * (asterisk) wildcard character. For example:

• A* matches any name beginning with the letter A
• *A matches any name ending with the letter A
• *A* matches any name containing the letter A

Saving in Various Formats

If you want to save a Rational Rose model as a different format, you may select any of the following options from the Save As Type list in the Save Model To dialog box:

• Models *.mdl (the current version of Rose)
•  Petal *.ptl
•  Rose 6.1/6.5 Model
•  Rose 4.5/6.5 Model

If you prefer, you can modify the rose.ini file to always save in a specified format, eliminating the need to select Save As. Refer to Modifying the Rose.ini File on page 16.
