Hi all,

There was a post long time ago asking for guidance for integrating guidance diagram in a MDG technology that could be accessed from tab "Process Guidance" of the Model Wizard.
At that time (EA v14.x), the answer was "It is not possible yet".

Now with EA v16 (or v15), is it possible to integrate guidance diagrams in a MDG technology that could be accessed from tab "Process Guidance" of the Model Wizard.
How, is it done?  I have seen nothing in the EA v16 documentation related to that for MDG technology.

If not possible, what is the best alternative to do something similar?
I am thinking of including the Process Guidance Diagram within the “Create Diagram” in the Model wizard.
Any better solution or advice?

Thanks

qwerty

My thinking ever was: offer the best training possible. Some of my colleagues went for patterns. For myself I would not recommend it since patterns look nice, but they are only useful if you now what they mean. Like paint by numbers. The result might look good, but it's never really creative.

Thank you qwerty,
I am with you about the "Patterns" functionality.
This is why I would like to include "Process Guidance" into the “Model Wizard”.
Is it possible now to integrate those guidance diagrams in the “Model Wizard” the same way Sparx does it with all MDG and other technologies ?

I lost hope, so have not verified it. Leaving such a big hole (after creating it themselves) and not fixing it over at least two versions. Well, complaining did (almost) never help. Sending bug reports turned out to be futile. Anyone good luck, though. I can waste my time with better things.
