Title: Shape Script- draw extended shape
Post by: Tehila1 on April 28, 2015, 08:21:36 pm

Shape Script expert is needed!

I would like to set color to a non-UML element, via shape script.
The following code draws the shape of parent of the non-UML element. e.g. Activity shape for the ArchiMate Service element

Code: [Select]

setfillcolor(255, 87, 87);
drawnativeshape();

I would like the shape to remain Service shape, but colored.
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Try DrawParentShape()

Thanks.
Replacing drawnativeshape with DrawParentShape() indeed draws the derived shape, but without effect to the color definition.

Any ideas?

Report a bug (though it might be rejected for some reason). Alternatively draw a colored dot or something over the original rendering.
