Setting Conditions: The Role of the Global State Cell

The Global State cell is the arena in which you
create triggering and/or filtering conditions.
The cell is called the Global State cell because
the conditions you create are active at all
times. You can think of these conditions as the
default conditions. You use the Global State
cell to create simple condition such as "Trigger when you see an xxx error," or "filter out
all xyz primitives."

Example - Creating a Simple Event Trigger

To create a simple condition that is active at all times, place an event button in the Global
State
cell:

Step 1 Click the New Event button. An Events

menu opens (shown right).

Step 2 Select an event from the menu. The

event will appear as a button in the
Available Events area on the left.

Step 3 Drag the event button to the cell

marked "Global State."

Step 4 Right-click on the button (i.e., not the

Global State cell). A pop-up menu
appears.

Step 5 Select Trigger from the menu. An

arrow will project from the error button
and point to a cell marked Trigger.

Creating Multiple Event Conditions in the

Global State Cell

When multiple buttons are placed in the Global Cell, it
creates an "AND" condition or an "OR" condition
depending on the actions selected.

Creating an OR Condition - When two or more buttons
in the Global State cell are assigned the same action,
the analyzer will search for all of the events and perform
the action on which ever event it sees first. The example below illustrates. It reads
"Trigger if an error or a primitive occurs".
