Reconnect Activation Bars
« on: January 14, 2011, 02:34:00 am »
Sometimes (I don't know why), EA splits up an activation bar in a sequence diagram (see attachement).

How can I reconnect them?

Thanks, Robert

setNodeState appears to be treated as a return.  That would be the first thing that I would check.

Thanks Simon for your answer.

I've just checked it... setNodeState is a synchronous call with "Is Return" not set.

1) Right-click the message sleep(grabInterval)
2) Select Activations
3) Select Extend Source Activation up
That should do it

The split was caused by the new message from ProcessingThread

Cheers
Phil
