Generation Rules Page: How It Works
You can think of the Generation Rules page as a workspace for creating rules (rules that
determine how the analyzer generates traces). Rules are combinations of events and
actions.
An event and the action or actions associated with it form a rule state.
Briefly, creating a rule involves the following steps:
1. Creating Event buttons in the Available Events area.
2. Drag‐and‐drop of Event buttons to the appropriate areas (cells) in the Main Display
area.
3. Assigning an action or actions to each Event button.
Creating Event Buttons
To create a rule, first create one or more Event buttons. As you create Event buttons, they
appear in the Available Events area. You then can drag‐and‐drop them into the Main
Display area.
To create event buttons:
1. Click the New Event button at the left side of the toolbar to display the New Event
pop‐up menu.
