Question on Statechart notation

[Gary W.]

Hi,

I have a question about the notation being used in EA's Statecharts.  The online help shows bubbles with a horizontal line:


But using the tool only shows bubbles without any lines. See the example below:


Now, the funny thing is that I've seen the other bubble in other tools (e.g. see
http://www.guides.sk/UML/together/#statechart-diagrams).


Is this 'action' *within* a State valid UML?  If so, how can EA produce this?

TIA

1. Switch on the option "Tools > Options > Objects > Show State Compartment".

2. Enter the internal actions as operations.
