translating attributes to activity parameters

[mrblack12]

I'm trying to translate or convert attributes to parameters in an activity. Dragging an attribute onto an activity doesn't work, as fas as I know. Maybe someone out there knows a clever way to do this, rather than to go hacking the XMI files.

Hi,

I think you want to create a parameter with the values of an attribut. Perhaps also link them together.


I see the following possibilities:
- Make a dependency from Attribut to Activity Parameter
- Write a script (Addin, Scripting)
-- Select both the attribute and the activity\parameter, run script
    Create Parameter, fill values, link them together
    Update Parameter, link them together
-  On New Parameter message (select Attribut)
-  'On drag end' would be the best, but isn't available


Kind regards,

Helmut
