Procedure
- Open the message flow to which you want to add a node.
- Open the Palette view or the Palette bar.
- Select a node in the Palette view or Palette bar by using
the up and down arrows to highlight the node that you want to add
to the canvas.
- Add the node to the canvas by using one of the following
methods:
- Press Alt + L, then press N.
- Press Shift + F10 to open the pop-up
menu for the Palette, and press N.
The node that you selected in the Palette bar or Palette
view is placed on the canvas in the Editor view. When
you add a node to the canvas, the editor automatically assigns a name
to the node, but the name is highlighted and you can change it by
entering a name of your choice. If you do not change the default name
at this time, you can change it later by following the instructions
in Renaming a message flow node. The default name is set to
the type of node for the first instance. For example, if you add an MQInput node to the canvas,
it is given the name MQInput.
If you add a second MQInput node,
the default name is MQInput1;
the third is MQInput2,
and so on.
