Hello,

If you are using the Ribbon interface - the feature is available on Process tab/Reverse Engineering group/XMI button.

If you prefer the menu interface you can change it this way: https://www.softwareideas.net/a/346/Ribbon-or-Classic-Menu

Then XMI import is available in File menu.

The simple way to access the features is also the quick access box (in the right top corner of the window) - type xmi and choose the first option: Process ->Reverse Engineering -> XMI.

I hope I helped you.

RE: XMI Import

Dusan,

Thanks. Found it !

However, Import crashes after importing a previously exported ( very simple ) SYSML Package.

SoftwareIdeasModeler.Core.CommandProcessing.CommandException: Exception during execution the command: ImportXmi ---> System.Xml.XmlException: There is no Unicode byte order mark. Cannot switch to Unicode.

RE: RE: XMI Import

It seems to be something with text encoding. This error will be further analyzed.

You could also try to open the XMI file in Notepad and save it as a new file with UTF-8 encoding. Then try to import the new file to SIM.
