Example in the documentation for a composite state with history, entry and exit actions and a set of substates about state-machine-cat HOT 3 CLOSED

Exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks a lot.
I have the diagrams created by hand working as expected. Additionally, I extended my generator to support the correct syntax.

I think it is worth to add to the README file.

Thanks for the fast answer.

Hi @marcelbaumann thanks for this feedback!

I gather you mean something like this?

You can get that with the following smcat script:

atomic: 
    entry/ entry for atomic 
    exit/ exit for atomic
    an activity,
composite: 
   entry/ entry action for composite state
   exit/ exit action for composite state
   an activity for composite state
{
    composite.history,
    "sub state a":
      entry/ entry for a
      exit/ exit for a
      an activity for a,
    "sub state b",
    c,    
    composite.final;
    
    "sub state a" => "sub state b";
    "sub state b" => c;
    c => "sub state a";
    c => composite.final;

};


initial => atomic;
atomic => composite;

From the documentation it's indeed not immediately obvious where to put these actions relative to the state machine within the composite state. If this is what you're looking for (check?), I'll add it to the readme.
