RSA-RTE: Deleting an element from the model does not give option to delete it from TCs

In the sample model, delete ?Class1? from the model. This action does not delete it from any TC in the workspace. This is unexpected. I would at least expect a popup that asks me whether I want to remove the class from TCs. After all, any dependen...

Save As Image File... PDF support dropped

Let Help - Search find documentation available on DeveloperWorks
