Display tagged values on connectors and elements
« on: November 15, 2007, 05:23:42 pm »
I would like to be able to print / display a tagged value on a connector or element.

For example - I have a stereotyped dependency called <<interface>>.  I have added the tagged value "Transmission protocol".  I would like the value of this tagged value to appear on the connector (dependency) on the diagram.

Same should apply to elements.

I know you can do print() and println() in shapescript, but this is limited to pre-defined EA properties for elements and connectors.  I want to print tagged values of an element / connector on a diagram and also allow the user to reposition it like any other label.

Thanks,
David.

Thanks Simon,

I've read the page several times, but always seem to get fixated on the list. Of course the part you quoted has been there at the top the entire time.
