9.12. Activity Verbs

Activity verbs are the options that show up on the context menu when we right-click on the activity inside the Workflow Designer of Visual Studio. The default context menu contains a number of useful elements. Figure 9-17 shows a few samples of these context menus. You can see that the menu options are different, depending on which type of activity they are attached to. From left to right, the activities are Sequence, Parallel, and Code. The options on each menu are a combination of standard items from the root ActivityDesigner type; others are added to a specific subtype, for example, CompositeActivityDesigner or ParallelActivityDesigner.
