Grouping ModelEntity States

[zakiayyubi]

Hi! I have so many ModelEntity states defined in my Model and I want to organize this mess. Is there any way I can group them in different categories, just like the categories in user defined processes?

Thanks ,

Unfortunately not.

You can adopt a naming convention and meaningful names that make them easier to understand, like:

int_FinishedPartsCounter

real_ElapsedTime

bool_CompletedPhase1

If you have just a single ModelEntity object that is fulfilling multiple purposes and thus requiring so many states, perhaps you might create multiple objects and have fewer states on each object.

For example you might have a Parts object that has only the states necessary for parts and a Employee object that has only the states necessary for employees.
