A designer may want to see
the three most significant sketch events of a software design session.

In this picture the drawn
objects are ranked. The number at the
left of the dash shows the order the object was drawn. The middle number to the right of the dash
and the left of the decimal point
gives the primary ranking of the object based on the event type. The third number gives the secondary
ranking based on the importance or rather how related it is to the other
objects in the diagram. When the top
three most significant events are chosen, we choose the final event by
default and the two with the highest ranking, which are marked by stars.

When the most significant
events are chosen, the screen shot associated with the event is not the
screen shot of the time of the occurrence of that significant event, but
rather the screen shot of the moment before the next significant event. The next significant event is defined to be
the next event greater than or equal to the lowest primary ranking in the
listing of the most significant event.
This allows any smaller additions such as text or movement to be
included in the snapshot.

In this case the lowest
primary ranking was that of an agent class.
Thus the screenshots presented will contain all of the relationships
and general classes drawn before the next agent class is drawn.
