Creating and editing elements

You can find out how to create a process and use the wizard to create the first process element here.

If you have created a data group event handler, you will already see the element in the workspace.

The properties dialog of the element can be opened with a double click if you want to change settings.

Further elements can now be created - e.g. a data group action. Drag the element from the "Elements" area to a location close to the event handler that has already been created. If the new element is positioned close enough to the existing element, an arrow is displayed to indicate that a connection can now be created between the two elements.

As soon as you let go of the mouse button, the new element is created and connected to the existing element at the same time. It can now be configured. You can access the properties dialog of the new element via the main menu "Edit / Properties" option, the corresponding context menu or by double-clicking on the element.

The method described here can be used to create complete process chains for the automation of workflows.
