Title: quick way to add the required transition from an action
Post by: jeanfabre on April 18, 2011, 02:47:59 AM

Hi,

 I thinkw ecan improve the workflow when selecting events to be distpach within an action and that this event is not yet added as a transition.

1: I create a state
2: I add an action like booltest
3: I select the event to send when true
--> the action gives me an warning "Event not used by the state or any global transition"

Since you actually detect and modify the inspector content to show this warning, I would like ideally to be presented two small button, right next to that warning: one that would add this event to the state ( instead of me having to manually do it and break the building pace) and another that would add this event as a global transition with a new state. The second might not be creating cascading problems like where to put it on the fsm view etc etc. But the first button would be easy to do I suspect and would be a real time saver.

 Bye,

 Jean

Great idea! This general idea could be applied in other errors too (e.g., missing component error has Add Component Button).
