An already created release can be edited by double-clicking the box with the release identifier in the release section or by right-clicking the box → Edit. For this purpose, a new window opens with two sections: Define release and Calculation method:
Define release
In the upper section Define release the name and the identifier for type/use of the release can still be changed.
There are also three buttons on the right:
Rules + Controls
Clicking the Rules + Controls button opens a window that can be used to link a system state or state group to the release.
To do this, the desired system state/state group is selected from the list, marked with a mouse click and assigned to the release with the Assign button File:Button_assign.PNG. This scales the release with the system state/state group. The Remove button File:Remove_button.PNG removes the link.
In the release window, an icon next to the "Rules + Controls" button indicates whether there is a connection to a system state/state group or not .
Value change
