exporting a hierarchical state machine to images [message #1779731]

Hi,

Is any neat way to see a complete state machine diagram. As of Papyrus-RT 1.0 as we know each composite state has its own s.m. diagram, which makes working much easier and neater. Having said that, one may need to see the whole state machine diagram in one picture. There is an option to switch architecture context to UML, but that also does not work well, since I have to do a lot of manual work.
It would be great if we could export the main s.m. diagram to images and one image in the exported images shows the complete state machine. (currently export works but it only generates images for individual s.m. diagrams)

Thanks.

Unfortunately there is no support for this in 1.0. It was so by design, as it was a requirement, as the original users didn't like to see a full state machine in one diagram.

But I do agree that in many cases it is preferable to get to see the whole state machine in the same diagram. It would be a good idea to provide this capability. Please open a bug as an enhancement request.
