General Board / Re: Not being able to type a FlowProperty with a Signal

« on: August 20, 2025, 06:09:18 pm »

In the properties window of the FlowProperty, under Type.

This worked in older EA Versions. I used it through Version 16. And I am pretty sure it worked in the release version of 17.

I was trying to model the signal flow in an IBD. And while creating the InterfaceBlocks I noticed this bug.
Based on the SysML specification: "A FlowProperty shall be typed by a ValueType, Block, or Signal."
Value Type and Block still works though.

General Board / Question about the Excel Import

« on: June 24, 2025, 06:19:53 pm »

So I am playing around with the Microsoft Office Add-In
Especially with the Excel Im-/Export
If you export, lets say requirements.
Is there a way to import those, so they replace the existing ones, while keeping their traceability.

I am asking, because I somehow managed it a couple of times.
But I can't reproduce it anymore.

General Board / SendSignal, AcceptEvent and Ports

« on: March 04, 2025, 07:17:01 pm »

I have a question about Sending/Recieving Signals over ports:

In a SendSignal Action you can devine a port with "On Port"
The triggers also have the option of selecting a port.

Can you limit the reception of SendSignal and AcceptEvent through ports?

Here is an example:

A block, consisting of 3 subblocks:
Each block has an activity with a diagram.


The IBD:
The ports are typed with interface blocks. Each has one flow property, wich is typed by a signal.


The following is the activity diagram of Block0.
The 3 diagram frames below are from the subblocks.
Block2 and Block3 are both waiting for SIG_1 and SIG_2.
But only Block2 should recieve SIG_1 and Block3 SIG_2.
For this, the SendSignal SIG_1 is On Port: Port1
SendSignal SIG_2 is On Port: Port2
The Triggers of Block2 and Block3 are linked to the port of their block.


The problem is, that Block2 and Block3 both recieve SIG_1 and ignore SIG_2

So am I doing something wrong or does EA not support this functionality?

Is there a way to see the parent package in the specification view.
I can't find it in the field chooser.

Good to know!
I guess I'll have to the network config.

Thanks for the answer.

I randomly stumbled on his thread and wanted to try the ISO 80000 Library.
But I get an error message, when selecting it in the Model Builder.

General Board / CallOperationAction not functioning?

« on: January 27, 2025, 06:13:31 pm »

I am trying to run a CallOperationAction in a simulation. But it always stops at the CallOperationAction and doesn't proceed.
The operation isn't the issue.
Even crashed EA and made the repository unusable. Thank god it was one I made to test some stuff in EA.
Both the EA User Guide and the Simulation and Behavior PDF weren't helpful.


I would prefer to use the CallOperationAction because the code generation looks a bit nicer with it.
If I call an operation in an atomic action, I have to write the whole sim path in Javascript, which I then have to clean up in the generated code.
Using the CallOperationAction I get something like:
OutptPin1 = someOperation();
Which is a bit nicer.

Anyone got an idea or is this just deprecated?

General Board / Re: Attributes not visible

« on: January 09, 2025, 12:11:03 am »

BDD (short for Block Definition Diagram) is a Structure Diagram from the SysML Perspective.
This question focuses on the Blocks, which are modeled in this type of diagram.
Those can have attributes, which can be displayed by showing their compartments either for the block specifically or for the whole diagram.
I noticed that the display of attributes is not working, even though the display feature is activated.

Anyone else got that problem, that attributes aren't visble anymore in the BDD since the new update?

General Board / Script Library Templates

« on: December 18, 2024, 08:20:19 pm »

I would like to change the template of the scripts in the script library.
But, because of the IT, I don't have excess to them.
Is there a way to change the folder EA uses for the script templates?

Is there a way to read the cell position of an element in a grid style diagram, via a scriptlet?
