General Board / Re: Third party DFD MDG

« on: June 05, 2018, 09:14:59 pm »

@Sunshine,
Yes you understood right, ok let me try to play with it and create a new one.

Regards,

The DFD MDG provided with Sparx EA uses the Yourdon style of dataflow diagrams with circles for processes and arc style lines. I think Khurram is asking for is more like the Gane and Sarson style of data flow diagrams that have square/rectangle style and orthogonal lines.

Unfortunately I've not seen any MDGs that provide DFDs with 'Square' process instead of circle.

Shouldn't be too hard to create a new MDG. Probably take about a couple of hours.

You can try on StackOverflow by tagging your question with BPMN.

q.

Appreciate your response, I was thinking that too but I thought may be there is some place which google is unable to list.

Hi,

I am sorry if I am posting my question in a wrong place and mods holds the right to delete this post. I know this discussion forum is for EA its features and issue etc... but is there any BPMN discussion forum available on net, where we can post and discuss our diagrams, just so that we can find mistakes and make them right the way they should be done.

Thanks

@Arshad, appreciate your response let me try this one.

@Greet, my diagram is part of the package but don't know why it is happening, may be I am not as experienced as you are that's why having trouble to work with EA at that early stage.

General Board / Copying BPMN diagram to another Project

« on: March 27, 2018, 05:06:10 pm »

Hi,
I am new to EA, I have created a BPMN 2.0 diagram in a project, in this diagram I am using Pools and Lanes but now I need to copy this diagram fully to another project, how can I do it.

This is how I am trying to copy the diagram

Under My Package I have selected the Business Process where this diagram resides, right click on the business process and in the context menu in am clicking Copy/Paste-->Copy to clipboard-->Full Structure for Duplication

But its not working when I am pasting it to a new project, it is appearing as a blank project, any recommendations please.

Uml Process / Data Flow Diagram - Straight Lines

« on: March 05, 2015, 07:39:07 pm »

Hi, I am using Enterprise Architect, just a quick question that while creating the DFD, I want to create straight lines and bend them when ever it is necessary rather using curved or flexible flow lines which are available as default.

Is it possible to do that, as I am more comfortable with straight lines

Thanks
Khurram
