Searching sent events?[Solved]
« on: March 21, 2014, 09:38:10 AM »
I've been looking to do this a few times when nothing shows up in the FSM log. Something is triggering an event and I can't pinpoint what is. Is a search doable or do I need to go through all element 1 by 1 to find the offender?

Are you saying the Event doesn't show in the Fsm Log?

You should see events in the log. If an event was sent by another FSM you should also see a Sent By log line. You can click this to select the FSM that sent the event.

You can also right click the transition and select Sent By... to see the FSMs that send that event.

Usually it's as you say; clickable and one can discover from where it came. The event figures in this instance but one cannot see from which FSM it's sent.

Usually this means the event was sent by the same FSM. Can you see which FSMs send the event using context menu Sent By...

It's not the same FSM sending. I'm afraid I don't know what this specific context menu is.. Is there an image somewhere that shows which one you're talking of.

Thanks Alex, wasn't aware of the 'sent by' option and it was what I was looking for.
