[SysMLArchitect] Size of Blocks can't be changed #124
Description
Hello,
I'm using Modelio 5.4.1 (latest release, version shown in Modelio 5.4.01) with the SysMLArchitect module.
If I create a 'Block Definition diagram' and create a block, the block is added as a little square.
If I want to increase the size, it's not possible.
The little square stays as it is.
The only thing which is increased is an invisible rectangle (see attachment).
And the ports are added to this invisible rectangle.
The little orange box has still the small size...
I treat this as a bug in SysMLArchitect and I haven't found a better place to address this.
BR,
Andreas

Hi Akurtj,
By default, SysML blocks are shown as a image which is "fixed" or "static" as you noticed.
This can be changed to another "kind of representation" i.e. "structured" or "simple".
So for example, you will be able to change this:
for this:
Of course, this can be set as default.

Where are the settings for this?
Blocks should be structured by default in SysML, as the "simple" kind is not valid SysML.

You need to go to "Configuration>Diagram themes..."
And then in the sysml theme, change Class>Representation mode from Image to Structured
