Setting	Description
Transaction	transaction step appears in the Transaction dialog as follows. The Transaction dialog shows an overview of the existing transaction steps. When expanded, the expression statements recorded under each transaction step are seen.
Transaction controls	The icon color of transaction step indicates its status: — Transaction being played, will be visible in both geometry and graph views. — Transaction being unplayed, will vanish from both geometry and graph views. — Transaction being suppressed, will vanish from view and the transaction step turns grey. At the bottom of the Transaction dialog are the controls for moving backward and forward through the transaction steps. Controls from left to right: (Unplay all transactions) — Allows you to undo all steps in the sequence of stored transactions. (Unplay the previous transaction) — Allows you to undo the last played step in the sequence of stored transactions. (Record recent model changes as a new transaction) — Creates a new transaction step containing all of the changes and new nodes since the last transaction step, named according to the actions taken since the last transaction step. Clicking the text allows you edit the name of the transaction step with any description that helps to identify the specific step when revisiting the file. This allows you to structure and name the sequences of steps used to create a particular model. (Play the next transaction) — Allows you to execute the next unplayed step in the sequence of stored transactions. (Play all remaining transactions) — Allows you to execute the remaining steps in the sequence of stored transactions. (Auto record a new transaction whenever the model changes) — Allows recording of changes made in the model as a new transaction step added in the list. (Re-fit all views whenever transactions are played) — Re-frames the Graph window and View window every time a transaction step is played. (Select all played transactions) — Highlights all transactions in the list played in recent session. (Collapse all) — Collapse all transaction steps including expanded expression statements within each to a top level transactions. (Edit this entire transaction list) — Opens a Script Editor window that allows you to edit all transactions in the directory. Transaction steps can also be played or unplayed random by clicking on their icon. Play transaction / Unplay Transaction Note that irrespective of the current position of the cursor in transaction steps list, (when clicked on ) – the unplayed transactions above it are played, and (when clicked on ) – the played transaaction below it are unplayed. Transactions with clause will have additional controls appear, when played. They are: — steps into nested transaction file, by opening the included file in the transaction player and allows you to edit the transaction steps of the external file. — unplays all the transactions followed by returning to the outer-level host transaction. — plays all transactions in the included file and then returns to the outer-level host transaction.
Right-click a transaction	Right-clicking a transaction opens the following choices: Note: You can most of the below options on multiple consecutive steps by selecting them while pressing the <Ctrl> or <Shift> key. Edit Transaction — Opens a Script Editor window that allows you to edit a transaction. Consolidate Transactions — Combines continuous transactions. Consolidate multiple (consecutive) transactions Suppress Transaction — Suppresses one or more transactions without deleting the transaction step. The transaction icon turns grey and corresponding nodes disappear from view if were in play state. Rebuild Transaction — Replaces the selected transaction(s) with an alternative transaction(s) that achieve the same result. Note: The new transaction(s) may add or change multiple nodes if those nodes are of the same type. This operation cannot be undone. Split Transaction — Replaces the selected transaction(s) with an alternative transaction(s) that achieve the same result. Note: The new transaction(s) add or change only one node unless there is a recursive relationship. This operation cannot be undone. Unsuppress Transactions — Unsuppresses previously suppressed transactions. The unsuppressed transactions reappear in unplay state. New Include-File Transaction -— Opens a Script Editor window that allows you to edit (Insert Before or Insert After the selected transaction) a transaction with the title "New Include-File Transaction". New Model-Change Transaction — Opens a Script Editor window that allows you to edit (Insert Before or Insert After the selected transaction) a transaction with the title "New Model-Change Transaction". New Script Transaction — Opens a Script Editor window that allows you to edit (Insert Before or Insert After the selected transaction) a transaction with the title "New Script Transaction". The Script Editor begun the script with heading: transaction script 'New script transaction' . Delete Transaction — Deletes the selected transaction. Cut Transaction — Cuts the selected transaction. The transaction can be pasted to another location in the transactions window. Copy Transaction — Copies the selected transaction. The transaction can be pasted to another location in the transactions window. Paste Transactions — Pastes the transaction above (Insert Before) or after (Insert After) the selected transaction. This option can also replace the selected transaction (Replace Transaction). Available only when you cut or copy a transaction from the Transactions dialog.
Right-click a statement	Expanding a step lists the statements. Right-clicking a node statement opens the following choices: Edit Statement - Opens a Script Editor window with selected node's statement code to edit. For example, node nodeName Bentley.GC.NodeTypes.Point { } for a new node having default name nodeName and type Point. The statements defined in the script with in the curly brackets would form the Property and Expression in the statement. Add Node Definition/Update Statement — Adds new node definition with default name nodeName and type that the host node. Add Node Deletion Statement — Adds a delete statement <--DELETE in the Node Type field of the selected node definition. Delete Statement(s) — Removes the selected node statement from the node definition list. Copy Statement(s) — Copies the statement in clipboard; the selected statement can be used to paste. Paste Statement(s) -> Add — Pastes the copied statement in the statement list. Add amends the statement in the end of node definition list. Paste Statement(s) -> Replace — Replaces currently selected (cursor position in the row) statement with the one from clipboard.
