Generate Activity Diagram

When you create a scenario on an element, and then generate an Activity diagram from the scenario, an Activity is generated as a child of the selected element to act as a container for the diagram.

Each scenario step is modeled as an Activity
The values of the Uses, Results and State columns for each step are added as memo Tagged Values of the corresponding Activity
