v4.2.q.Rhp831.PreRelease (12-OCT-2023)

A quick cut with some additional core tweaks around functional flow modeling usability to assist including option to populate logic flow and having a separate symbol for accept events.

Now available on github. Don't forget to rename top-level folder SysMLHelper without the version number before moving into Profiles folder. Also ensure that previous profile is not just renamed but removed from Share/Profiles completely (as Rhapsody will open first filename it finds rather than the explicit path to .sbsx).

V4.2.q.Rhp831.PreRelease (12-OCT-2023):

0743 12-OCT-2023: ExecutableMBSE: Allow connectors to be drawn between subsystems owned by subsystems to give user option of deep nesting (F.J.Chadburn)

v4.2.p.Rhp831.PreRelease (11-OCT-2023)

Further refinement of usability, especially in the functional flow modeling with internal block diagrams and function blocks/usages with positioning of automatically created ports. 

Now available on github. Don't forget to rename top-level folder SysMLHelper without the version number before moving into Profiles folder. Also ensure that previous profile is not just renamed but removed from Share/Profiles completely (as Rhapsody will open first filename it finds rather than the explicit path to .sbsx).

Also some further model restructuring helpers related to progressively growing out a model, e.g., moving function blocks and subsystem blocks into their own correctly named and typed packages.
