How can I put text on a gateway arrow?
« on: August 20, 2010, 06:59:34 am »
I know this is easy - I use to do it, but I can't figure out how to do it now.  I have a gateway going into an activity, and I want to put "yes" on it, and "no" on the other arrow going into a diff activity.

thanks in advance,
leslie

Leslie,

Doubleclick on the arrow to get the properties dialog.
You can put text either into the name, or (which seems more apropriate for yes/no guards) into the "guard condition".

The latter will show up on the diagram enclosed in "[""]" brackets.
