Suggestions and Requests / Re: Sharing ShapeScripts

« on: April 29, 2009, 09:49:08 pm »

Would love to see this happen, I have recently been developing shape scripts for what our org needs. The 5 examples in Sparx documentation are just not enough.

Please get this rolling sparx, and paolo if they dont... maybe you and I should pump some code out, wouldn't be hard.

We have been using this solution, however some of our diagrams have between 300 - 700 elements on them. This gets very cumbersome when trying to do periodic diagram maintenance.

It would be a much better solution to make the hyperlink a property, that way it is closely associated with the elements.

I wish there was a way to display element properties with the stereotype.

Not sure if it is possible.

It would be very nice if I could take a standard activity object and put a little icon in the corner that when clicked will take the user to URL.

So I ask the gurus, is it possible?

Has anyone given this a shot successfully? I am thinking of trying it out tonight and writing it up.

Im looking for this information about elements on the diagram, not packages.

For instance and activity element can have many dependencies, I would like to see the label name of those dependencies.

Yes I would like to see all of the columns that are already in the 'links' tab, and ALSO the name of the link without having to open the dialog on the right.

You mentioned a new dialog I might be able to use? I'm not sure where to find that.

Is there a way to add this functionality?:



The way we are using the tool, it would make it quite a bit easier if we could see this information. Or at least be able to toggle what type of information we want to see.

Thanks for the reply, the critical element was to be able to have mixed clients contributing. Its good to hear that is possible.

As always we will keep backups.

We have our model in a MySQL schema, I am wondering if the new client can access this schema without causing issues. If we can change all of our clients over to the new version, will our model still be usable? Or is there some migratory procedure that needs to take place?

We have an extensive repository maintained with Sparx EA 7.1.829, if we switchover to the most recent client tomorrow will our repository be compatible?

I just worked on a fairly large schema in MySQL Workbench, thinking that I could just suck the script right into EA... I was sadly mistaken. Are there any suggestions for getting a MySQL database modeled in EA quickly?

General Board / Automatic Generation of HTML Report

Has anyone attempted to develop a solution for automating the process of generating the HTML Report. I would really like to sit an instance of EA on a production VM and just have it scheduled to do generation nightly.

No vector, no transparency. State of today...

It would be nice if you would post some legitimate insight that may help current and future users get a grasp on what they need to do to create their own images.

What are "common image files"?

WMF are vector files.

Web graphics I guess: jpg, png, gif, tif
