Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Find options in Regestr Editor

« on: April 13, 2024, 01:51:10 am »

Hi all,

I want to enable/disable specific EA settings when installing my Add-in. Is there an overview which describes the options you can find (and modify) via the windows registry editor under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Sparx Systems\EA64\EA\OPTIONS ?
I am looking for the setting "Gradient Fill Direction For an Element".

Regards,
Marc

Suggestions and Requests / 'Save Project As...' is missing in EA 16

« on: April 29, 2023, 05:57:09 pm »

Dear all,

since EA 16 the 'Save Project As ...' menu entry is missing. Especially, when working purely on a file system this is an often used feature. Also this is standrad feature of all tools on the market and only missing in EA since version 16. Could you please integrate this back again in the the release of EA 16.1?

Regards,
Marc

Bugs and Issues / Save to file is not working when the path is too long

« on: April 29, 2023, 05:40:00 pm »

Dear all,

when I want to save a diagram as an image in EA 16.1 and the path in which I want to save the image is too long (approximately > 200 characters), no image is created and no warning or error message is provided. I my point of view an error message should occur, to that the user can see, why there is no image crated.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / v16 - Problem changing the position of a diagramobject

« on: August 11, 2022, 02:09:09 am »

Dear all,

so far (until v15.2) I changed the position of a diagram object within a diagram programmatically for layouting purposes in my add-in via a SQL query (update of the RectTop, RectLeft, RectRight, and RectBottom in t_diagramobjects). Is there a reason why this approach is not working anymore in v16 (build 1604)?

Regards,
Marc

Hi Geert,

thank you. This solves the issue. Can this additional step also be included in a WiX based msi installer?

Dear all,

I try to migrate my currently working Add-in to EA v16. But although I build the Add-in for x64, I still get as status "Error - Missing (0x80040154)". Is there anything else which must be updated from 32- to 64-bit?

General Board / Line break in swimlane names

« on: December 14, 2020, 09:32:54 pm »

Dear all,

is it possible to include a line break in the name of a swim lane? For instance, if the name of the swim lane is longer than then width of the lane, I would like to have the name in two lines instead of "...".

Is this possible in EA?

Regards,
Marc

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / EA_AllowTagUpdate not working for connetors

« on: April 30, 2020, 05:00:03 pm »

Dear all,

I try to create a C# add-in which triggers some action every time, that a tagged value is changes using EA_AllowTagUpdate. However, this only works for Parts and not for connectors. Do I need to implement another method which is triggered, when atagged value of a connector is changed?

Regards,
Marc
