Hello,

Does the new version have the feature to show StateMachine in Table format, or is this planned? That would be real useful.

Thanks
cor

Hello cp!

Yes, a state machine table view is already on our feature list!

also as comment for others:

of course (and already now) you can use our API, create your table and show it in an own window inside UModel (also see ActiveX Controls) or use the scripting editor to get a similar solution...

Thanks cor.

The API is quite extensive and useful, it probably needs more documentation and examples though.

Hi cp!

Yes, it is quite big and detailed but IMHO this is necessary to give you all possibilities to automate UModel and access/modify all the UModel data structures.

We currently have a general UModel API introduction (also explaining the Object model and some How to's...), a API Reference (> 6MB), a general description of UModel plugins and ActiveX controls, several CSharp and JScript usage samples, an ActiveX control sample, a plugin installer sample, a documentation of the scripting editor with a scripting sample,...
Additionally, the UML data structure is implemented according to the UML specification, so you can also take a look at http://www.uml.org :-)

Maybe you can make some suggestions what you miss or cannot find?
Every input is highly appreciated!

Hi cor,

Thanks for the links. I have visited most of them to learn the API. The API is indeed a priceless tool for automation tasks.
As far as documentation suggestions, I meant something along the lines of how Microsoft documents their object model with description for every object, method, event, etc. along with usage examples in several areas: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.appdomain_members.aspx. Anyway, I have been able to create a fairly robust code-generation component using it albeit some minor issues, so cheers for including the API.

Regards,
cp
