Before using this feature, make sure:

When displaying Parts/Ports in the aspect diagram, e.g., Electrical Data Transfer System Internal Block Diagram, you can display all the parts/ports of an appropriate aspect, e.g., Electrical, by using the All By Aspect button. After selecting this button, all parts or ports that match the diagram's aspect can be displayed. The figure below demonstrates the usage of this button in the Display Parts/Ports dialog when you are trying to display all electrical aspect ports of the selected control Panel part.

The All By Aspect button usage in the Display Parts/Ports dialog. The illustration displays concepts from SysML Plugin.
