				Hi,
 
     Here is a silly question. How to place large number activities inside the build time window? I have a process which requires 40 activities to be modelled inside a process template. But, I am running out of space  (. And it throws the following exception.
 
 
"FMC52020E You cannot place symbols outside the paper boundaries"
 
 
Thanks,

				Hi golam_m,
 
 
I think if you place an activity just close to the border, the scroll bars get added, and the page increases in size....dont remember though....   
 
 
If you have 40 activities, then you could rather make it subflows and access them from a main flow....I think that is definitely possible    
 
 
Regards. |

				Hi elvis,
 
               Tried placing the activities close to the border!! The page does not increase in size  
 
 
               Subflows can alwasy be a solution to this problem. But does any body else have any other idea? I just don't want to use subflows for clinical reason. Of course if I am not bound to

				Why not just increase the paper size.  Use the menu. _________________ John McDonald

				Hi Golum,
 
 
Just increase the paper size.
 
 
Go to Format Menu and Click on Paper Size... option. |
