A structured activity contains one or more other activities that
are arranged on one or more separate paths. Here are some tips on how to work
with these activities in the editor.
- Choose a structured activity from palette, and drop it to the canvas. The activity will appear with a shaded rectangular workspace.
Note: - If this is a choice or a receive choice activity, it will contain a default
element representing a single control path.
- With the exception of the parallel activity, all structured activities
differentiate the activities that they contain into separate control paths.
In a parallel activity, you create the control path yourself with links.
- Populate the workspace with activities from the palette. If this is the first activity that you're dropping to the workspace,
it will automatically appear in the first path. If there are already activities
on the path, then a black line will appear as you hover over the path showing
where you can drop the new activity.
- To create a new path in the structured activity (only some structured
activities support multiple paths), hover over the activity's icon until the
action bar appears, and select an element from it.
- You can expand or collapse this structured activity by clicking
either the miniature plus (
) or minus (
) icon.
