Title: Cannot get image decoration to render in ShapeScript
Post by: netizensmith on July 09, 2025, 11:11:40 pm

Hi,

I have a stereotype in a profile and I want to display a Green Tick decoration on it. I have this shape script:

Code: [Select]

decoration GreenTick
{
image("GreenTick",0,0,15,15);
}

I have a 16x16 PNG in the Image Manager and it is named "GreenTick".

The preview in the Shape Editor show nothing.

I believe I've followed the instructions correctly but is there something I've missed?

Thanks

If you don't give your decoration an orientation, EA won't know where to show it.
From the examples in the manual:

Code: [Select]

decoration mail
{
     orientation= "NE";
     image ("icon image", 0, 0, 100, 100);
     // "icon image" being the name of the 16x16 image which is loaded into the Image Manager
}
