"Report Usage" on an element shown in a diagram is disabled

Does someone know why "Report/Usage" command is disabled when right-clickin on an element in a diagram.

We use PTC WM 9.6. It seems to me that in 8.x, it was allowed. Help mentions only that "Report Usage" for a diagram (itself) does not work but I don't see why it should not work on an element displayed on a diagram.

We have to find the element on the browser and then perform the "Report / Usage".. which is a bit annoying.

 

Thank you in advance for your support

hello,

 

Can you give a concrete example? - which diagram and element type are you using?

I'm using Modeler 10 and I can see the command - see below - and it works as expected by outputting the information to the Results pane.

thanks,

Patrick

Thank you Patrick

We have done the tests in WM 9.6 for BDD and IBD (SysML).
Re-creating the issue to answer to you, I figure out that it seems that to do "Rport Usage", you need to have write access to the diagram.
If I "un-protect the diagram" (with key in the ribbon), don't have a Change Note active, the Report/Usage is disabled.
As soon as I have write access, the option is availabel.
According to me, this is a bug (at least of WM 9.6) as "Report Usage" should not modify anything in the model.
