Archimate shape functionality

[Paolo F Cantoni]

Paolo: What I mean with Archimate compartments!!

We use the relatedElements functionality in our models to show relations between elements in a more compact way. But with the implementation of Archimate in EA you cannot use relatedElements in a stereotyped element shapescript. It does not work!!

Maybe something that will be fixed in future versions!!

Ah... I see now.

There is no Related Elements compartment type in the Compartment Visibility diagram [Ctrl+Shift+Y].  So it's not an ArchiMate specific problem, it's a generic problem.

Put in a formal feature request (for a Related Elements Compartment type), via the links below.

ArchiMate shape scripts never call drawnativeshape. So they can't draw any compartments, including compartments defined by a RelatedElement shape.

ArchiMate does not have containers.
