Custom Activity that acts like "Sequence"

Hey all,

I have begun developing some custom activities and I have built some simple ones that perform windows functions like moving the mouse, etc.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to create an activity that would function like “Sequence” or “Excel Application Scope” - in that it would hold other activities and workflows inside of itself.

The goal is to create an activity that I can nest other activities in and have it do some arbitrary action to each activity inside of itself. The simplest use-case that I can think of is an activity that receives other activities as input and takes a screenshot before each activity runs and outputs those to a set folder.

Please let me know if I can provide any more clarity on what I am asking.

Thanks,
Reed

Hi,

You can easily create custom activity which has scope using the following VS plugin.
