Modifying Product Flow Display

For each product flow, you can choose the start and end anchor positions on the previous and next systems. When dealing with a large number of systems, the layout of the product flows can become complex and difficult to understand. For each product flow, you can choose the start and end anchor positions on the previous and next systems. This helps you organize flows and build a layout that fits your needs.

Four anchor positions (north, south, east and west) are defined on each system tile. This is so that you can attach the flow on a preferred side, allowing you more control of the layout.

Creating a Product Flow
  1. Select a product flow link.
    A context toolbar appears allowing you to choose the start or end positions of the link.



  2. Click End anchor position then select one of the positions for the end point of the link (East , for example).



    The product flow now ends at the right-hand side of the target system.



    Note: When the product flow starts or ends on an operation, there is no choice for defining the position: for an operation, the product flow goes straight in the direction of the center of the operation. However, you can define the position of the end of the arrow at the top of the parent system.
