Activity Parameters not staying-put

[Polymorph]

I have an activity that owns an activity parameter. When I draw an activity diagram and place the parameter on the diagram frame I locate it as required. I save the diagram and close it...

When I come back to the diagram the parameter has moved back to its original location. No matter how many times I save the diagram the parameter refuses so stay where I put it. I've also seen this behaviour with some of the control/object flows on the diagram. I've tried deleting the original parameter and replacing it with a new one but this doesn't help.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Have you tried by moving the Activity as well?
I can imagine that sometimes EA doesn't notice a small change and as a result doesn't save anything.

Just move you activity frame a bit more to the left, than it works.

[PeterHeintz]

Sorry! Wrong direction!
Move it a bit to the right!

Hooray - was about ready to throw my PC out the window! Thanks everyone!

I remember that I have send a bug report some month ago to Sparx.
Let's see if and when it will be fixed.

Hi Peter,

I am really happy to tell you that it is still not fixed yet in the year 2019, more than 3 years after you report the problem!

Maybe relevant: This was the easiest question I have ever written to this forum - because all I had to do was copy the question Mr/Ms Polymorph wrote above in 2016.

re Geert Bellekens suggestion (in 2016):

"Have you tried by moving the Activity as well?

What do you mean exactly by "mov(e/ing) the Activity (as well)"?
How do you do that?

What do you mean exactly by "move you activity frame a bit more to the left (/right)"?
How do you do that?



Thanks,

I am using v15.1.
Maybe v15.2 fixed it?

Thanks
