Removing states from a composite state

In UML modeling, you can remove states from a composite state by dividing the composite state into its individual states. The composite state is removed from the state machine and replaced with the states that the composite state contained.

Before you begin

Before you can remove states from a composite state, you must have a state machine diagram open in the Modeling perspective.

Procedure

  1. In the diagram editor, select the states that you want to remove from a composite state.
  2. Right-click the selection; then click Compose > Decompose.
