Inserting an Enumeration

In the Elements palette or toolbar, click the Enumeration Variable or Enumeration Parameter button.
The Enumeration Selection window opens.
All enumeration types defined in the database/workspace are displayed in the Enumeration Type combo box.
Select an enumeration type from the combo box.
Click OK to close the selection window.
This loads the mouse cursor with the enumeration. The properties editor is opened.
If you do not want to open the properties editor upon an element’s creation, deactivate the Always show Editor for new Elements option at the bottom of the editor.
You can revoke this setting in the ASCET options window, Confirmation Dialogs node.
Adjust the element properties according to your needs and click OK.
Click in the drawing area.
This positions the enumeration.

You can change the properties of a message later via re-opening the properties editor.
