Hello
I am currently developing a new DSML for a healthcare process as part of my Masters Thesis. For this purpose I plan to reuse some existing modelling elements (e.g. Role element of the organizational model) to create domain-specific concepts (e.g. Patient Role element). In order to do this, I planned to use free icons from the internet (e.g. http://www.freeiconspng.com/uploads/patient-icon-png-21.png).
I designed several new modelling elements with the help of the OMiLAB GraphRep creator. It provides a feature to include png images from the internet which delivers code such as this one:
BITMAP "db:\\patient-icon-png-21.png" x:-43pt y:-53pt w:85pt h:89pt
However, I did not manage to use this code or in general images from the internet in GraphRep of ADOxx. I suggest, that OMiLAB stores them on their own db where they can be used for OMiLAB projects. Also providing the ADOxx GraphRep with the full link does not work.
The only way I managed to use images was when saving the locally on my harddisk:
SET filename:"d:\\f5fe024a8c.png"
BITMAPINFO (filename)
BITMAP (filename) x:-27pt y:-56.5pt w:56pt h:53pt
The problem with this solution is, that it will only work if the images are stored at exactly this location on the hard drive of the user. The distribution of this DSML should in the end work out of the box without having to save images at the exact location manually.
- Is there any possibility to use links to an image from the internet in the ADOxx GraphRep? This would be the preferred solution
- If not, can/are they somehow provided together with the db to other users? I guess in this solution, a relative path to the image has to be used in GraphRep (I am not yet experience in providing a developed language to others, I only noticed that if i delete them locally, they are no more shown)
Thanks for the support on this.
