How to Customise and Create Customised Toolkits

[sarvarian]

Hi Forum,

How do you create custom toolkits for EA?  Do you have any guides on how to do this?

My team and I are looking for a way to create a customised version of the EA BPMN toolkit, similar to the way it is possible to create a custom stencil in MS Visio.

We are hoping to be able to create a custom toolkit that we can load into EA, and also be able to edit it and distribute it for other members of our team to use, or have it built into the project file (like a Visio stencil)

For example, there are some parts of the notation we do not want to use (certain flows, certain events, etc) and others that we want to subtly change the appearance of (colourings, sizings, etc)

Thank you very much
