# Create a new state
|
|
|
|
You can create three types of State nodes in a State Graph: [Script States](#create-a-script-state), [Any States](#create-an-any-state), and [Super States](#create-a-super-state). For more information on the types of State nodes, see State Graphs in [Graphs](vs-graph-types.md#state-graphs).
|
|
|
|
You can also add a [Sticky Note](vs-sticky-notes.md) to add comments to a graph.

## Create a Script State
|
|
|
|
To create a new blank Script State:
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><p>[!include[open-state-menu](./snippets/vs-open-state-menu.md)]</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Select <strong>Create Script State</strong>. <br/>Visual Scripting creates a new Script State node.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Open the <a href="vs-interface-overview.md#the-graph-inspector">Graph Inspector</a>.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>In the Graph Inspector, choose a source for the Script State node:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><p><strong>Embed</strong>: The graph only exists on the Script State node. You can only modify the graph from the node in its parent State Graph.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p><strong>Graph</strong>: The graph exists in a separate file. You can modify the graph outside of its parent State Graph and reuse the graph in other areas of your application.</p></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p>If you chose <strong>Graph</strong>:</p>
|
|
<ol type="a">

<li><p>Select <strong>New</strong>.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Enter a name for the graph file.</p></li>

|
|
</ol></li>
|

To create a Script State from an existing Script Graph:
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><p>[!include[open-state-menu](./snippets/vs-open-state-menu.md)]</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Select <strong>Create Script State</strong>. <br/>Visual Scripting creates a new Script State node.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Open the <a href="vs-interface-overview.md#the-graph-inspector">Graph Inspector</a>.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>In the Graph Inspector, set the source for the Script State node to <strong>Graph</strong>.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Do one of the following:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><p>Select the object picker (circle icon) and choose a compatible Script Graph from your project.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Click and drag a Script Graph file from your Project window and release on the <strong>Graph</strong> field.</p></li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
</ol>
