Edit Transition

Used to ...

You can access this tool from the following:

  • Ribbon: Corridors > Create > Transitions split button

Editing a transition is a two-step process.

  1. Connect the backbone points of the first template to the backbone points of the second template, as desired. Unconnected points are shown as thick + symbols; connected points are thin + symbols. End conditions are not shown. End condition transitions are handled through end condition exceptions.

  2. Edit the transition components.

The color of the transition indicates the state of the transition.

  • Red - indicates that none of the backbone points of the first template connect to the backbone points of the second template.

  • Yellow - indicates that some of the backbone points are connected (initially this is done attaching points that have the same name.

  • Light Blue - indicates that not all of the points are connected, but you have reviewed and/or edited the transition at least once.

  • Dark Blue - indicates that all of the points on both templates are connected.
