Report: Specify attributes 'Layer' and 'Aspect' for ArchiMate objects

Use

Sets the Layer and Aspect attributes of ArchiMate® objects according to their object symbol. This is only done for objects whose default symbol is set to an ArchiMate® symbol that is available in the standard ARIS method.

If groups are selected, the object symbol of all objects in the selected groups and their subgroups is taken into account.

Default settings

When the report is executed, the Layer and Aspect attributes are set to predefined values. The values of composite elements, for example, are set to Other for the Layer attribute and Composite for the Aspect attribute.

Additional settings

To customize the report script to your needs, edit the script in the script editor. Change the default attribute values for the corresponding ArchiMate® objects.

For example, if you want to change the Aspect attribute for the ArchiMate® location symbol, search for the following line in the script and change the entry COMPOSITE.

addToSymbolMap(Constants.ST_ARCHIMATE_LOCATION, Aspect.COMPOSITE, Layer.OTHER);
