I spent a lot of time drawing Activity diagrams (in EA 14)
Most of the connectors I draw are
- Control Flow
- Line Style Orthogonal Square
At the moment this takes a lot of clicking - there are 3 ways to choose a Control Flow (depending on what you are connecting) and I have to set the Line Style explicitly on every line.
Is there a way to change the default Line Style, or to define a keyboard shortcut that will set a connector type and Line Style?
The only think I found in the help was "F3 - create another connector of the same type as the last connector you used" - but nothing happened when I used F3.
For the curious this is what I'm doing at the moment:
1) Select Element, Quick Link, Drag
a) Depending on what is being connected I get a different Dialog so
i) Select Control Flow,
ii) Select Control Flow>Control Flow,
iii)Curse-escape-select Control Flow from Toolbox
b) connect the Source to the Target
2) Select Connector > Line Style > Orthogonal Square
I did find "Apply Line Style on Diagram" - but that doesn't really help unless I first draw all the lines on the diagram and then start laying out the connectors.
Thanks
