Actor symbol

[kdjantzen]

Hello,

UML 2 defines several symbols for 'actor': the original figure, a box, a clock, an object.
Can I use these symbols with EA? If yes, how?

Thanks.

You can, but not out of the box. You would need to stereotype the actor and write a shape script for each stereotype. This can be rather any shape if it's not too complicated (regarding programming logic: Shape Script is very limited; complexity: each shape is interpreted and rendering time can increase with too many too complicated shapes).
