Creating a Self-Transition

Go Up to Activity Diagram Procedures

You can add a self-transition to a state element.

To create a self-transition:

1. Draw a transition from the state or activity element and drag the link away from the element.
2. Drag the link back to the element and drop it.

Alternatively:

1. Draw a transition between two activities (or states).
2. Drag the opposite end of the link line back to the desired activity (or state).
