Assign Port-Socket
This tool must be applied after the Set subpage tool has been applied. This tool assigns a port socket pair:
- Apply the tool to a place on the subpage, selecting the port. The port must have a colour set inscription, and it must have a port-type tag, i.e. In, Out, or I/O. Focus changes to the superpage and the cursor changes if the tool had been picked up from the palette.
- Apply the tool again to a place on the superpage, indicating the socket. The socket must have the same colour set inscription as the port. Focus will now change back to the subpage.
- Sockets can only be assigned to ports with the proper type (In, Out, I/O):
- If the socket is an input node (and not an output node) for the substitution transition, then it must be assigned to a port with an In-tag
- If the socket is an output node (and not an input node) for the substitution transition, then it must be assigned to a port with an Out-tag
- If the socket is both an input and output node for the substitution transition, then it must be assigned to a port with an I/O-tag
