You can generate documentation that describes all components, including states, pseudostates, connectors, regions, and transitions, of a completed statechart. Complete the following steps to generate statechart documentation.

  1. Open the Project Explorer window for the statechart for which you want to generate documentation.
  2. Double-click the Diagram.vi item to open the Statechart Editor window.
  3. Select File»Generate Documentation.
    Note  You also can right-click the .lvsc item, or statechart library, in the Project Explorer window and select Generate Documentation from the shortcut menu.
  4. In the prompt that appears, specify whether you want to open the statechart documentation in a Web browser after LabVIEW generates the documentation.
  5. In the file dialog box that appears, specify the location to which you want to save the statechart documentation.
  6. Click the OK button. LabVIEW generates an XML file and a folder of support files in the location you specified. If you selected to view the documentation in a Web browser, LabVIEW displays the XML file in the default Web browser.

You also can use the Generate Documentation method to generate statechart documentation programmatically.
