SysML Activity Diagram, Control Flow is dashed

[Helmut Ortmann]

Hello,

in SysML Activity Diagram the control flow is a dashed line.

Kind regards,

Helmut

From SysML 1.2 or 1.3

Presentation Option
Control flow may be notated with a dashed line and stick arrowhead, as shown in Figure 11.4.

In my experience these presentation options are not usually the default behavior.

As further evidence that the solid line as provided by Enterprise Architect is valid please refer to Table 11.2 of either referenced SysML specification which shows both notations.

So, while we do have plans to implement an option allowing control flow to be rendered with a dashed line I don't believe that the current rendering is a conformance issue.
