I’ve tried to write a plugin on my own since 2 weeks. With the plugin-example, custom-control-example and moddle-example. But I failed all the time. So my request is: Is here somebody who knows how to write a plugin for custom-elements which will appear in the palette with an own image? For exam…

Sorry to hear you’re having such a hard time with the plugin. Though it is an advanced topic, maybe with a little help you can write it yourself. Let’s start with what exactly you’re trying to achieve in terms of customizing bpmn-js and worry about bringing it into the Camunda Modeler later. I’d sug…

Thank you for your answer philipp. I read many examples/plugins/readme-files on github, installed them, looked how they work and so on. As well as in the bpmn.io-forum. The people are always linking to the examples on github. What I want to achieve is: Add some custom tasks, events and one data…

I don’t know why but there was en error about posting more links than two. But here is the second example-plugin about which I talked above. [image] bpmn-io/bpmn-js-example-custom-elements An example of how to support custom elements in bpmn-js while ensuring BPMN 2.0 compatibility. …

ReaderEvent for example or ReaderTask should look and act like usual BPMN tasks and events but only with an …

What are you trying to build and how is it related to BPMN? Looking at these symbols I’m starting to question whether bpmn-js is the right tool for the job.

Im trying to build: Add these symbols into the modeler and then want to use them trough drag & drop. Creating bpmn models. For example: A readerTask can be used like a ServiceTask But a readerTask has an own icon. When bpmn-js is not the right way. Which way is better or easier for that case…

If a reader task is a service task under the hood the XML could look like this: <bpmn:serviceTask myCustomNamespace:type="reader" /> It’s the same as the qa:suitable="70" attribute that I already mentioned. Based on that attribute you can render the task differently. Again, all of this is shown in…

Its not a service task Its just a task In the example is nowhere explained which files should be changed Philipp the example doesnt help me

[image] LX777: A readerTask can be used like a ServiceTask [image] LX777: Its not a service task Its just a task So what is it? Anyway, I’m not sure how to help you. I think the example is quite comprehensive.
