Disable Default Line Styles
« on: January 28, 2015, 10:21:12 pm »
Hi,

I am using a Activity Diagram. When I add connectors between Activities, the line style is LV (lateral Vertical) by default. I then change them to Custom (C) in order move them around to fit appropriately within my page.

The problem is that when I add a new connector, all the connectors change to LV again and I need to change all of then back to C and reposition them.

Is there any way to disable the default line style, so that when I add a new connector my current connectors will not change?

Thanks,
Minna

Minna,

I'm not sure why, but adding a new connector should never ever change the style of the existing connectors on a diagram.

Do you have some kind of addin or script running?

Hi Geert,

I don't think I have a script or addin running. But if I do, how do I check?

If nothing is running, then my only conclusion is that an Activity Diagram has a default line style.

Thanks,
Minna

Minna,

You better report this to support. AFAIK there is not way this can be considered normal behavior.

Thanks Geert.

Is there any way to check if a script or addinn is running in Sparx EA?

Thanks!

Hi Geert,

You were right. I found the addin that caused the problem.

Thanks for your help!
