Transform an Activity object into CallBehavior object

[tzafrir]

hi,
I have an "Activity UML object", taken from the model tree (in the AddIn code it is EA.Element),
What I want my AddIn to do is, once I am taking that object and putting it on the diagram,
that it will be switched to a CallBehvior object.

I managed to do it in EA without AddIn coding,
is this something this something AddIn coding can do?

You need to subscribe to EA_OnPostNewDiagramObject in order to get informed about placing something on a diagram.

Hi,
The issue is transforming the EA.Element from Activity to CallBehavior.
With placing it on the diagram I am fine.

Well, that's some obscure flag somewhere xD I'll try to have a look tomorrow.

It turns out that it's an entry in t_xref.

Name='CustomProperties',
Type='element property',
Description='@PROP=@NAME=kind@ENDNAME;@TYPE=ActionKind@ENDTYPE;@VALU=CallBehavior@ENDVALU;@PRMT=@ENDPRMT;@ENDPROP',
Client=guid of action
