BABOK User Stories

[Nrido]

Hello,

I would like to add user stories in EA. I stumbled upon some kind of an add-on (or perspective / methodology?) called BABOK.

In BABOK perspective I found User story diagram, with custom toolbox that contains everything I need (persona, epic, theme, user story). I found it much better than just a simple user story element hidden inside Use Case diagram artifacts.

I then generated a sample pattern, but what I dont understand is that elements from that pattern look visually quite different than the actual elements from the Toolbox (basically it looks like UML REQ).

See printscreen:


I know how to show or hide requirements section of an element, but it still looks wildly different. I already tried various settings almost everywhere. I also found some kind of a user guide for BABOK, but there was zero mention of user stories.

Are they using the infoview?

Are they using the infoview?

No, in both cases info view is not enabled. I also checked stereotype in properties and in both cases it says "BABOK::user story".

Is it possible that those elements are different versions? So the sample pattern is an old version and the actual element in the toolbox somehow changed later on?

ah, might set to show rectangular.

Thank you, that should be it! Its precisely shown in this article as well (last picture): https://blog.sparxsystems.de/en_GB/ea/grundlegende-konzepte-element-notizen-im-diagramm-anzeigen/

I just dont have that icon (I have element icons enabled and I see other icons on the right of the element) nor do I have the option for showing rectangular view in appearance (I have currently version 15.2).
