Creating Action Pins in EA 12.1
« on: March 11, 2016, 04:08:41 am »
Hi,

The documentation states that:

Quote
To add an Action Pin to an Action, right-click on the Action to display the context menu and select the New Child Element | Action Pin menu option. (You can also assign Action Pins, to define specific properties of the Action.)

But I can only find Activity Parameter, Expansion Node, Object Node, Attach Note and Attach Constraint on that menu.

Is it the first one that I am supposed to use?

Click on the action (either in diagram or in project browser). Open context menu (mouse right). Select Add/Action Pin).
I you action is a call behavior action you can use Structural Elements to get created action pins from activity parameters.
Best regards,

What you have there is not an Action, it's an Activity.
