Specifying the icon used for objects as they are animated in the simulation

Architecting and designing : Business Process Analysis (BPA) : Simulation of Process Models : Simulating business process diagrams : Simulation properties of BPMN symbol types : BPMN objects : Specifying the icon used for objects as they are animated in the simulation

You may specify the icon that is used to represent the Object in SA Viewer as it is animated flowing through the process flow during the simulation.

Symbol Icon

Represents the object during simulation animation by using a picture. If you specify a picture, you must also turn off Default Icon. To specify the picture:

1 Create a Symbol Icon definition.

2 In its Icon Reference property, type in the full path and file name of the picture. SA Simulator provides icons for simulation in this directory:

<C>:\Program Files (x86)\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\System Architect\SAViewer\Bitmaps

For example, to use a jet.wmf file provided, type:

C:\Program Files (x86)\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\System Architect\SAViewer\Bitmapsjet.wmf

Default Icon

Represents the object by using a large red dot.
