Insert Action (send signal) SysML1.3 in own MDG
« on: December 07, 2015, 11:12:46 pm »
Hello,

I tried to insert the element "Action (send signal)" in my own Profile (MDG Technology). But it doesn't work.
I tried several possibilities in my Toolbox.
SysML1.3::SendSignalAction
UML::Action and kind:SendSignal but then I do not get the same Icon. Also I do not want to use a own Icon.
Does anybody has an idea how it work?

Try "UML::SendSignalAction"

The problem is with UML::SendSignalAction is that I do not have the Icon in the Toolbox. I do not want to create an own Image.
I used "UML::SendSignalAction" as an Attribute in my Toolbox. Is there any possibility to insert the right icon (looks like an arrow)?

Carolin,

If you have the icon somewhere on a toolbox, its really easy to create your own image from it.

What I usually do is:
- Print-Screen
- Paste in Paint.Net (free image editor
- Select a region of 16x16 where the icon fit in
- Crop to the 16x16
- use the Magic Wand to select the background color
- Set the color to 192,192,192 (C0C0C0)
- Use Fill Bucket to fill the previously selected background region(s)
- Save as .bmp

That's it. Usually takes no longer then 5 minutes.

Creating the signal icon in Inkscape would take less than a minute  ;)
