Control over the modeler

[sanjul]

I have an ERP application with predefined process with set of tasks. I want some control over the modeler to limit the access to change the process and add the task. How can this be done? 
Also, is it possible to launch the process state diagram ( which is available in the process explorer app) directly from my application?

- For the access change, you will need to adapt the Explorer code yourself, this is not baked in

- The diagram is generated by the DefaultDiagramGenerator, you can just this is your own code

Thanks a lot for replying!
I have one more question: Is it a good idea to extract the Activiti-Modeler source code and embed into my web application?, or is it better to run it as a separate app?
I want to be able to use the models generated by the user ( bpmn20.xmls) within my own app.
Am I on the right path?  Is there a better way to do it?

Sure, you can do that. It's open source, you do as you please 🙂
