Order of Operations in State element
« on: June 02, 2023, 03:37:25 am »
In EA 16.1 when I add operations to a State element, they are displayed as sorted by the Name/Comment field.   What I want is for the "entry/" operation to be first, then the "do/" and then the "exit/".    For example if I add "entry/ do something" and add "do/ an operation" the operations are displayed in the diagram in this order:

do / an operation
entry / do something

I figured out that, if I start the operation Name/Comment with A-Z that it sorts based on that.   Is there any way that I can force the display order of the operations and not have it automatically sort them?

Also, while it was asked in an older post, it really would be helpful to be able to add multiple operations of each type.   Mostly for the "do/" operation though.
