Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a text area (Task comments)that lets
you write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with
the OKbutton, and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Go Sub
The GoSub action task transfers the execution of the calling process to the specified
subprocess (see "About processes and subprocesses" on page107). When a process
encounters a GoSub action, it halts its own execution, start the subprocess and waits for it to
complete before resuming its workflow with the next task.
Every subprocess starts with a BeginSub input task and ends with a EndSub output task, both
of which have nothing to configure and cannot be replaced or deleted. The simply represents
entry and exit points for the subprocess.
Note
While it is possible to place a GoSub action within a subprocess, doing so will hide the
subprocess from any GoSub action, in order to avoid circular referencing (aka an infinite
loop).
