Hi
This might sound stupid, but I have learned that there are never stupid questions. I have to create around 10 different Activity diagrams with a lot of activities in it.
So here are the questions:
1) When I drag an activitiy into the diagram, it comes up with a standard shape, which is too big of how I want them, then I have to make it smaller every time. It happens every time with each activity I keep adding. Now I am comfortable with the size it has, lets say I add a new activity. What I have to do is to select the new big and the old ones (the size I want) and then select them all, right click and select same heighth and width and I get the size I want for the new one.
Is there a way to pre-select the size the of the activity, so it comes up every time with a pre-select size.
2) Each Activity, has notes and different tabs like: Require, Constraint, Scenearios which I am adding a lot of stuff in here. My question is:
How can I see all this either in EA without going into each activity and double click on it ; or export it into a Word doc to see all of this.
3) Example :I will be addding 2 activities. To add a first and last name in a screen. This activity will be to enter first and last name when adding a member. But when adding a spouse, the last name will be reused and pre-populated with member last name but the first name will be blank.
Question:
I added a Scenario in First Name:
Input for member
Blank for spouse
I added a Scenario in Last Name:
Input for member
show member last name, let overwrite
How can I expressed all this in an activity diagram
and then export it to word.
I have done this in document as a Business Analyst, but I want to use EA on this project and have EA document the developers.
Hope some one give me a hand on this and thanks in advance. Sorry for the long message.
