Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Script for copying diagrams

« on: December 16, 2024, 10:19:58 pm »

Hi Everyone,

I need to create a JScript for copying a diagram from a package source to a destination source. I'm able to copy through the use of targetPackage.Diagrams.AddNew functions and setting elementId, top, bottom, right and left for all the elements to move within the diagram. The issue that I have is that the copied diagram is not well formatted and there are some elements that are overshadowing others or the positions are different. Is there a way to simplify the copy and have a full copied diagrams identical to the original through functions in a script?
Thanks

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Integration Requirements Tools - EA

« on: August 01, 2023, 06:18:28 pm »

Hi All,

Does anyone has experience with environments that involves requirement tools + EA?
In particular I know that some tools provide a direct interface (e.g. JAMA), while others uses third part integration (e.g. Polarion with Lieber Lieber LemonTree). Do you have any detail about it and what is the best one in terms of interface?
Thanks,

Michele

General Board / Time trigger and After(time)

« on: April 05, 2023, 05:46:16 pm »

Hi All,

I need to create a time trigger that perform a transition after a period of time. I would like to use the after(time) trigger. Is it supported by EA?
Thanks

General Board / SimFunction

« on: March 04, 2023, 02:21:57 am »

Hi All,

I'm approaching to parametric diagrams and simulation. I'm following the guide about mathematical simulation provided by the Sparx Website. In particular I'm replicating the Two Tank example where it is explained how to create a function inside a constraint, stereotyping an operation as a "SimFunction".
I'm creating a new operation inside a constraint block but no stereotype SimFunction is applicable. Even if i see all perspectives the specific stereotype is not present.
I will appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks,

PCS General Board / Call behavior actions and Overlays on WebEA

« on: July 01, 2022, 04:25:54 pm »

Hi all,

I'm facing some issue on a model I'm exploring on WebEA. I'm not able to open some diagrams just clicking on the call behavior actions that call them. This made difficult to explore the model.
In addition, I have created some matrix specifications with overlays (to represent status of valves On-Off), but also in this case I'm not able to see the overlay on WebEA.
I will appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks

PCS General Board / webEA and Glossary

« on: June 15, 2022, 07:27:39 am »

Hi all,

Is there the possibility to navigate the glossary through webEA as for the EA Glossary Giew? I noticed that it is possible to create a glossary package containg the category and the different terms, but it is not so simple to explore and navigate in webEA.

Thanks
Michele

General Board / Relationship Matrix and Template

« on: June 13, 2022, 05:38:23 pm »

Hi all,

I would like to create a custom template where to show some relationship matrixes. In particular, for some of them I have created overlays and I need to show the complete matrix on the template.
I have added the relationship matrix tag, showing both the name and the image ( {Matrix.Image}) but the overlay is not showed. Do you have any suggestion in how I can represent the complete matrix on the template?
Thanks

General Board / EA 16 and PTC Integrity

« on: June 06, 2022, 07:40:46 pm »

Hi all,

Does anyone has experience with the interface between PTC Integrity for requirements and EA? What options are the best to connect the two tools? Does EA 16 provide additional improvement for the connection with external tools?
Thanks

General Board / Relationship Matrix and Properties

« on: May 06, 2022, 07:57:26 pm »

Hi,

I would like to produce a relationship matrix where the target will be a list of properties (SysML) contained in several Internal Block Diagrams. My purpose is to show on the matrix only the properties of one type.
Is there any option to do this?

Thanks

General Board / Enterprise Architect and SVN

« on: March 29, 2022, 12:57:08 am »

Hi,

I' m versioning a Model with SVN and I have added the branch to the Version Control, following the option on EA. When the system starts to perform the automatic commits to the SVN repository, I have the following errors and the following message:

"User had 15 commits in a row in the last 450 seconds.
Subversion was designed to work on a change-set basis rather than file by file basis."

Is there any procedure o particular option to avoid this error? Is it necessary to perform manual commits?
I' have also tried to version single packages, but on same packages I have the same error.

Thanks

General Board / State machine and entry/do/exit behaviors

« on: February 16, 2022, 12:26:48 am »

Hi all,

I'm working on a state machine diagram with several states. Each state will have an entry, do and exit behavior, modeled as activity diagrams. Is there a way, from the state element, to open directly the different activity diagrams from the entry/exit/do behaviors?
Is in alternative a good way to create activity diagrams as owned behaviors of the state?
Thanks

General Board / EA and PID simulation

« on: January 24, 2022, 10:02:43 pm »

Hi all,

I'm approaching the simulation with EA through Simulink. In particular I'm intersted in modeling a PID for a pump displacing fluid from a bag. I've found the Water Tank Pressure Regulator example but I would like to know if there are other references that could help me in better understanding how to interface Simulink.

Thanks

General Board / SVN

« on: January 11, 2022, 09:46:11 pm »

Hi,

I'm placing the model under version control with SVN. This is the first time with an external versioning system and I'm following steps instruction from the user guide.
The repository now contains different folders and a .EAB file. I suppose people that need to work with the same model need to checkout the files from the repository but it is not clear to me how they can import the model in EA.

Thanks,

General Board / State Machine and entry behaviors

« on: August 12, 2021, 08:52:47 pm »

Hi all,

Is there the possibility to define more entry/do/exit behaviors (e.g. including more than an activity) in a state?
In addition, if I defnine an entry behavior, is it possibile to show the relationship state ->entry behavior in a relationship matrix?

Thanks

General Board / Valves configuration and matrixes

« on: July 28, 2021, 04:52:31 pm »

Hi,

I'm modeling a state machine diagram with several states, each state has an entry behavior characterized by a behavioral diagram showing the valves configuration (they can be ON or OFF). For the moment I have represented the activation of valves with an activity diagram with different action block showing Valve_X_ON or Valve_X OFF. I'm not sure if a sequence diagram could be more suitable.
I would like to find a way to create a relationship matrix or a custom table to collect all the states with the related valves configuration.
Could you support me in understanding the best way to represent the information on EA?
Thanks
