Does BP-VA support Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) version 1.2 as per OMG Document Number: formal/2009-01-03?

No your product does not support 1.2. For example it makes no distinction between throwing and cathing events e.g. white envelop versus black envelop. Is this on the roadmap?

I use the latest build 20090704 version 3.0

Hi user,

Thanks for your post. When you right-click on the message intermediate event, you can select Trigger \> Catching/Throwing in the popup menu (see attached image) to change it to be throwing/catching event.
