Visibility of variables
As you build a dialog flow, SAB automatically makes available to the current component all the
variables defined in all the previous components in the path. For this reason, the most efficient way to
draw a dialog is to add a component, connect it to the previous component, then edit its details.
Adding a dialog or process component
To add a dialog component to a dialog flow:
1. Click on the Add Component button.
SAB displays the Select Component dialog box.

2. Select
the Search (Dialog) tab to find a dialog component
•
the Search (Process) tab to find a process component.
•
3. Do one of the following:
to find a specific component, type the component name, or partial name, into the Find field
•
to find all available components, leave the Find field blank.
•
A list of components can be found in Appendix A, page 108.
