Stateflow

Selecting and Deselecting Objects

Once an object is in the drawing area, you need to select it to make any changes or additions to that object. To select an object, click it. When an object is selected, it is highlighted in the color set as the selection color (blue by default; see Specifying Colors and Fonts for more information).

To select multiple objects, click and drag a selection rubberband so that the rubberband box encompasses or touches the objects you want to select. Once all objects are within the rubberband, release the left mouse button. All objects or portions of objects within the rubberband are selected.

Simultaneously pressing the Shift key and clicking an object either adds that object to the selection list if it was deselected or deselects the object if it is on the selection list. This is useful for selecting objects within a state without selecting the state itself.

To select all objects in the Stateflow diagram, choose Select All from the Edit menu or the right-click shortcut menu.

Simultaneously pressing the Shift key and doing a rubberband selection selects objects touched by the rubberband if they are deselected and deselects objects touched by the rubberband if they are selected.

Pressing the Esc key deselects all selected objects. Pressing the Esc key again displays the parent of the current chart.
