Hi,
looking for a way to create a diagram for a uml model I found the Papyrus additional component "Diagram generation". I am trying to build a template which produces a diagram for each activity in a uml model with all its containing sub-elements (e.g. opaque actions, initial node, activity final node, edges, in/outpins, ...).
I followed the given tutorial for the generator, but unfortunately it seems I cannot create more than an activity or an activity plus parameter nodes. So I am missing e. g. all the expected actions, nodes, edges, and pins inside of the activity in the diagram.
Because the workflow seems pretty straight forward after reading the tutorial I am wondering, if this is still a user problem or if the Diagram generation is outdated for the current Eclipse Luna + Papyrus?
Maybe there is someone more experienced with this tool, who could give me a hint?
Kind regards,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,
The Diagram Generation tool is not properly maintained, so I can't tell whether it works or not (Last time I checked, it did work however). Papyrus, by default, displays empty diagrams (Or minimalistic, for Sequence, Activity or StateMachine: only the root element is displayed). You have to populate the diagrams manually, e.g. by dropping the nodes of interested into the diagram (Ctrl + Drop can also display the contents of the dropped nodes, e.g. the properties of the classes)
The Diagram Generation tool emulates a Drag & Drop action, so it only works for diagrams which properly implement drag & drop operations.
Regards,
Camille
