Diaflux elements#

- Exit node: exit point of a DiaFlux
- Action node: select a question, solution, or other flowchart and model an interaction with this it.
- Comment node: use this node to provide annotations to transitions or nodes.
- SnapShot node: used to inhibit the truth maintainance to reverse decisions before this snapshot. (Behaves like a diode.)

Best Practices
#
- A DiaFlux flowchart shall have a unique name.
- One flowchart needs to be checked for Autostart. (That is where a session workflow will start.)
- Do not overload a single flowchart. Model rather small parts and reference them in a parent flowchart.
Rule of thumb: Not more than a monitors field of view.
