Starting Point & Preparations
Make sure the the Smartfacts plug-in is loaded and visible
Sometimes Cameo does not show plug-ins, even if they are loaded and docked into the UI. In this case, open Window > Reset Windows Configuration in Cameo (Ctrl + Shift + W)Select the project tab
Load the Codebeamer tracker into the plug-in via the local menu and expand the tracer node by node.
Adding a link
Open a diagram and select a Cameo item you want to link. You may also select a Cameo element in the model tree or you may select the frame of the diagram if you want to link the whole diagram
Select a tracker item in the Codebeamer grid.
Select Add link in the local menu of the Codebeamer item. This will open the link definition window.
Check if source and target of the link as well as link type are set correctly.
Click generate link
Result: The Codebeamer item has gotten a vertical grey bar, which indicates that the item has OSLC links. If you hover on the grey bar, you will see which elements have been linked to this item.
Inspecting the links in context of the current diagram
Switch to the links tab and examine the list of links. Each link shows the source (SysML element) marked with an S and the target (requirement) marked with a T. On both, source and target, you can apply various commands via the local menu.
Commands of the Source Element (SysML element)
Remove: This command removes the link.
Open in Project Tree: This command switches to the project tree and expands the SysML model in the model tree of the SysML element.
Find in Project: This command searches for the element or diagram in the original model and expands the Cameo model tree at the right node.
Open in Smartfacts: This command navigates to Smartfacts and opens the published diagram or model element.
Commands of the Target Element (Requirement)
Open in original tool: This command navigates to Codebeamer with the right project loaded, with the right tracker loaded and the right requirement selected.
Open in local viewer: This command opens a window and loads the delegated UI of the Codebeamer requirement in Cameo. All attributes are listed in the delegated UI.
Expand requirements tree: This command switches to the requirements grid tab, loads the right tracker into the grid and expands the corresponding node in the hierarchy.
Inspecting the delegated UI of a linked Codebeamer Item in the links tab
