Hi Mohana, One way to do this is to open a blank workflow window, and drag TypedCompositeActor from the tree onto the new workflow window. Then right click on that actor and choose "open actor." you should then have a workflow screen open that represents the contents of your new composite. Then open your workflow, copy the contents of the workflow by hightlighting all the components and doing ctrl-c, then paste the contents into the window that represents the composite actor. You should then have the contents of your workflow in a composite that you can save to the library (i.e. rt. click and choose "save to library" which will create a kar file for the composite and put it in the library tree).
hope that helps. let me know if you need more help. chad Mohana Ramaratnam wrote: > Hello, > > I have created a workflow which I want to save as a composite actor and > then use it with the IterateOverArray actor > (ptolemy.actors.lib.hoc.IterateOverArray). > > I can instantiate the IterateOverArray as a component, but how do I save > the composite actor so that i can either instantiate it or have it > visible in the kepler ontology. . > > Mohana > _______________________________________________ > Kepler-users mailing list > Kepler-users at ecoinformatics.org > http://mercury.nceas.ucsb.edu/ecoinformatics/mailman/listinfo/kepler-users
