The user guide indicates Message Events are supported but I don't see them in the palette. Is there (end user) way to add them?Regards,Ron

Hi,

Message events are not yet supported in the Designer.
In the next version I think we'll be able to add it.

Best regards,

I doubt that. I think he means the 5.10 or 5.11 release

It's the 5.9.2 version. I pulled the code from svn and built the update site locally while the team worked out the distribution issues.

There's a more general issue at hand - at least from my point of view.

Is it not a basic premise that a business process modeler can use the Signavio modeler and round-trip those with a developer using the Eclipse modeler?

If so - the Eclipse editor should know how to ignore constructs is doesn't understand (or maybe represent them in some generic way).

I acknowledge the technical challenge this might present.

Am I looking at this wrong?

Regards,

Ron

Hi Ron,

I meant the 5.9.3 release of the Designer for the message event support.
Full roundtrip is not something we support yet. I agree that this would be great to have.
But as you say, it's a bit challenging to implement this so please create a JIRA for this with a detailed explanation of the functionality you are looking for.
Then this can work can be started in one of the next releases.

Best regards,

Hi,

I'll release a new version 5.10 this week that includes message event support.
Version 5.9.3 didn't have that support yet.
