Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Something similar to VBA

« on: March 05, 2023, 07:34:40 am »

Hi

I just wanted to ask if there is something similar to VBA in Office that can be used to write one's own modifications for EA? Is there a starting point iike a tutorial ("Dear beginners, macros/extensions/whatever are built in the following programming language and you can use the following example to render a hello world message" etc)?

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / How to import vsdx files

« on: February 24, 2023, 08:30:50 pm »

Hello everyone

I am using EA 15.2.1559 and I want to import a Visio .vsdx diagram. I found this, but I am afraid that the website is i) describing a different version, because I see no extension menu and ii) that I do not have the permissions to install a new extension due to corporate IT restrictions.

Do you see an easy way to import vsdx diagrams?

Best regards

Suggestions and Requests / SOLVED: Adding and removing space to and from a canvas

« on: February 13, 2023, 07:25:53 pm »

Hi everyone

I have a seconed suggestion, but this is more a question if such a function already exists. In some diagrams I add elements and everything looks fine. But then I gather more and more information and suddenly I need more space between the elements. In a way I would like to just stretch a canvas at a certain point and add more space vertically or horizontally. This is different from selecting each and every single item and move them to another place. And it would be great to have the opposite function as well to remove unnecessary space.

Does something like this already exist in EA? I know it from other tools and used it there a lot.

Suggestions and Requests / Watermark feature for lanes

« on: February 13, 2023, 07:21:02 pm »

Hi everyone

Sometimes I have very long lanes in my process diagrams and then I have to scroll to the the start to look which lane that actually is and back again. I would like to have feature which prints little reminders with the lane title in regular distances in a long lane. Or does such a feature or something that does the trick in another way already exist?

Best regards
