Visual Designer Tutorial

Our example task is to build a troubleshooter for a TV that won't turn on. We follow this procedure:

1. Does the power on button work?
2. If the power button doesn't work, is the TV plugged in?

Here are the basics for drawing your decision tree:

• To Add a New Node: Drag a Content node or other icon on left side into the main drawing area.
  
  
  
  
• To Link Two Nodes with a Button: Hover over a node, and when a dot appears on the bottom of the node, drag it over a similar dot on the node to connect to.
  
  
  
  
• To Resize or Move a Node: Click the node, then drag the inside to move, or drag the edges to resize.
  
  
  
  
• To Edit a Node or Button: Click once on the node, then click Edit Node from the top status bar. (You can also double-click or right-click on the node.)
