Title: Hide stereotype label of an association connector stereotype
Post by: elr on November 05, 2024, 05:53:27 am

Hi,
With MDG, I set up in my toolbox a stereotype of Association metaclass called ""Is Associated To".
That works fine but.. as it is default connector and I have many of these in my diagrams, I'd like to lighten it by hiding stereotype label.

In shape script editor for my new stereotype, I tried

Code: [Select]

shape main
{
    print("");
}that hides the line and not the label. And :

Code: [Select]

shape main
{
    moveto(0,0);
    lineto(100,100);
    print("");
}
that brings back a no more clickable line !?!?

Does someone has any clue to control connector label or where to look for ? Thank you !

Eric

Hello Eric,

Please search for the 'showlabel' in the EA help. You can specify which labels are shown and which are not.

HTH,

Thx Takeshi ! showlabel is documented into https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.0/modeling_frameworks/drawing_methods.html (https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.0/modeling_frameworks/drawing_methods.html)

That's exactly infos I was looking for to better control shape edition.

Meanwhile, I just found :
