Can't add value to requirements

Hello,
I’m sorry if somebody already answered this problem but I’ve been stuck since yesterday and I’m kinda new to Capella. I am creating requirements in my projects using the Requirement add-on, and everything is working fine except when I try to add any kind of Value Attribute to my Requirements.
I can create Types in my Types folder and I can create and modify requirements but every time I select a requirement and I click on “Add Capella element → xx value attribute” nothing change. Can somebody help me find a solution please?
Thank you for your help

For some reason, and just to clarify we are talking about the same thing, I believe that the Property Values that you can create on any Capella element does not work for requirements.
For requirements, you have this “Type” creation mechanism that you are using. But I don’t think setting the attribute you’ve created will go through the “Add Capella Element” menu.

For more help, please post screen capture of what you are doing and where you are stuck, I should be able to help.

Hi so this is what I was trying to do, because I wanted to achieve something similar to the second image


Yes, so if you are able to setup your requirements attributes correctly, you should be able to acheive this:


Quick steps for properly creating Req attributes (not exactly what I did here):

  • If you have not already done it, create a “Capella Type Folder” (for instance right click on “System Analysis” folder ad you’ll find it), and name it “Types Folder” for instance - make sure you have activated the visibility of these types of elements in your project explorer
  • In your Type folder, create a “Data Type Definition”, and then in the property view, name it IE PUID
  • In your Type folder, create a “Requirement Type”, and then in the property view, name it as you want, but this will be use to “type” your requirements (I used “MyReqType” in my example)
  • Inside this type, create a new “Attribute Definition”. In the property view, chose the Data Type “IE PUID” that you previously created and also name it IE PUID
  • Now take one of your requirements, and in the property view, choose the Type you created (MyReqType)
  • Inside your requirement, create a new “String value Attribute”, and then in the property view, choose the “IE PUID” as a Definition, and then give a value to your “String Value attribute” (I put MyValue in my example)

Thank you for your help but unfortunately my problem persist. When i arrive to the last step and I have to create a “String value Attribute”, it doesn’t work (literally nothing happen after I click on it and it does not get created). I have o idea what I’m doing wrong



I am so sorry to have waster your time, I just found out I had a filter on and I didn’t know it… Now everything is working! thank you for your help!!
