Title: Feature to group associations on a diagram
Post by: Guillaume on March 29, 2013, 10:24:13 pm

Hi

I often find it difficult and time consuming to draw a number of associations from let's say 10 activities to the same node such as gateway on a BPMN diagram. Line styles help but once you move e.g. a pool, it can be a pain to re-align everything..

Could we have in EA a feature that groups a selection of associations/links so they all align on the path :

   [ch9484]-----
   [ch9500]-----
   [ch9500]-----
--[ch9508]    
   [ch9500]-----

thanks
Guillaume

It already exists (mostly). You want tree style connectors, but that will only work for a number of connectors with the same target.
