Creating Releases
In the Create release section of the release window, the name and the identifier of the release can still be changed.
On the right side of the window, there are three other options to further define characteristics of the release:
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.
