General Board / Re: How to hide elements in diagram based on rules

« on: June 18, 2013, 07:02:59 pm »

You can either check out diagram filters, or use some kind of script/add-in to fill the ActivityPartition with a black color, effectively hiding the actions behind it.

Geert

I was trying to define a filter, thats fine I am able to select and to hide the elements but when you hide the, then you have a black hole there :-)

Can you show me please an example of script which will do this job for me?

Thx

General Board / How to hide elements in diagram based on rules

« on: June 18, 2013, 06:43:24 pm »

Hi together,

I have to design processes regarding risk department. Because of security reasons, when a documentation is generated, or the process os showed in EA to a third party, we are not allowed to provide detailed information about the activities in risk processes. I am looking for some mechanism, which will garantue to me to hide such activities on the screen and in the generated docu.

For example when the processes responsibilities are divaded by lanes (lane in my diagram = business role) I can quickly discover which activities belongs to risk department. Is it possible to define some rule, which will select those activities and convert it for example into a black-box pool or one general acitivty called "risk processes"?

Or other suggestions how to solve this?

Thx

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Problem with elements filter in RTF template

« on: July 03, 2013, 04:40:36 pm »

Hi guys,

my goal is to prepare document template for business process description. The structure in project browser is following:

Process - (BusinessProcess)
  Pools and Lanes (Pool, Lane)
    Activities (Activity)
    Other Elements

With respect the structure above I have prepared the template, but I want to include only information about activities. When I run the template without any filter, I get the full descriptions of all elements. But when I define new filter with following conditions:

Search in element stereotype where the value is equal "Activity"

I obtain only empty report.

What I am doing wrong?

Thx
