State Machine State select Composite Diagram
« on: April 27, 2017, 08:14:42 pm »
When you add a state in a state machine you are able to assign a composite diagrams e.g. another state machine diagram (Select Composite Diagram) to it.
Later you are able to assign e.g. a State Machine as a classifier to that state (Instance Classifier…)  to use a substate machine.

When you drag a state machine to a state machine diagram by default “Drop as” is "Invocation (State)" what basically leads to the same thing as described above, however you are not able to assign a composite diagram any more (context menu item is missed).

Is that an intended feature, and if so why?

I belief it is a bug.

It's EAUI (inconsistent as usual). Once you uncheck the "Composite" the menu also disappears. You should report that as bug.

Yes, I will do!
Just to be complete; it was build 1310 where I saw this.

It's the same in V12 (and probably earlier versions).
