Module A Video - Create a use case package structure

This shows new project creation using the Executable MBSE profile v4.3. It steps through  creating a project structure manually for use cases, actors and requirements showing the mosaic SysML approach with different package types tailored for focused areas before using the create use case package structure menu to automate all the manual steps. 

The automation approach used by the Executable MBSE profile results in faster model creation and a consistent and usable project structure, and is an example of how it's possible to extend SysML and Rhapsody to add method-aware helpers to make SysML easier to use and adopt. The steps for doing the Module A training lab are a PDF included as a controlled file in the v4.3 profile.

v4.3.Release (13-NOV-2023)

This release incorporates polish that has come from doing more training material development. The v4.2 work focused on DOORS Next and Function Block workflows. For the first time, the release includes a training Lab as a controlled file in the profile, hence I have started a v4.3 development strand which the aspiration for refinement of documentation and video support.

Now available on github. Don't forget to rename top-level folder SysMLHelper without the version number before moving into Profiles folder. Also ensure that previous profile is not just renamed but removed from Share/Profiles completely (as Rhapsody will open first filename it finds rather than the explicit path to .sbsx).
