Generating Entry, Do, and Exit code from state machine diagrams

How To
1

I have a state machine diagram that I’m generating C++ code from. I have functions that I want to call on Entry and Do. However, I can only select Activities. The instructions I find online at State Machine Diagram Code Generation in Visual Paradigm are a bit different than VP 17.0 that I’m using now. The instructions say to create an Activity and put the code in the Body of the block. When I generate code, I don’t see anything relating to this activity or the code I added.

This is particularly frustrating because I know that SMC does this. I’m trying to replace a hand written .sm file that includes these things, but I can’t seem to figure out how to get Visual Paradigm to do it.
