Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-3492:
-----------------------------------

+1. Better to have consistent behaviour than to end up with this conversation in the user's head:

"ok, I've made 3 states, now I need to connect 'em.
draw a line from a to b, draw a line from a to c... hey, that one has a label! cool, I can label them.
draw a line from b to a... no label?
draw a line from c to a... also no label. How do I make the labels show up? Hmm. better check the source tab to see what's going on..."

> Sorry for the Mounds/Almond Joy reference in the issue title. The actual problem is that when creating Transitions with the jBPM Graphical Process Designer, sometimes you get labels, and sometimes you don't... seemingly at random. Sometimes when I create two-way references I get one label, or two, or none.

> Tested with JBoss Dev Studio Version: 2.0.0.CR1, Build id: R200812221144
> Steps to repro:
> 1. Install JBDS.
> 2. download http://www.jboss.org/downloading/?projectId=jbossjbpm&url=http://downloads.sourceforge.net/jbpm/jbpm-installer-3.3.0.GA.jar
> 3. `java -jar jbpm-installer-3.3.0.GA.jar`. I installed into ~/jbpm-3.3.0.GA
> 4. New > Other > Process Project
> 5. Go into src/main/jpdl/simple and open processdefinition.xml with jBPM Graphical Process Designer
> 6. Add a couple nodes, then connect them to the existing flow, or create a new flow from scratch.
> 7. Switch to Source tab. I had this: 
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <process-definition  xmlns="urn:jbpm.org:jpdl-3.2"  name="simple">
> 	<start-state name="start-state1">
> 		<transition to="state1"></transition>
> 	</start-state>
> 	<state name="state1">
> 		<transition to="fork1"></transition>
> 	</state>
> 	<fork name="fork1">
> 		<transition to="end-state2"></transition>
> 		<transition to="end-state1" name="to end-state1"></transition>
> 	</fork>
> 	<end-state name="end-state1"></end-state>
> 	<end-state name="end-state2"></end-state>
> </process-definition>
> In this case, I created 4 Transitions and only one was given a default name, "to end-state1".
