Corrects the display of process models in swimlane layout when the role names that contain a comma (,)
Fixes the problem that generated an error message of "Unable to create part" when organizing process model elements by classifier in swimlane layout

If you have a process model with role names that contain a comma (,), you might have had problems with the display of its diagram in swimlane mode. For example, the assignment of the swimlanes might have been incorrect. The fix (JR24649) provided in Interim Fix 5 makes it easy to correct these problems. However, the Interim Fix 5 product notes contained incorrect instructions for fixing these swimlane layout display problems. Use the following instructions instead.

Note:

Although the fix JR24843 eliminates an error message of "Unable to create part" when you organize process model elements by classifier in swimlane layout, you might see a missing line below the last swimlane header (left column) when you open a process model that you created before this interim fix. You can correct this swimlane layout display problem using the following instructions.

To correct swimlane layout display problems, complete the following steps:

  1. Open the affected process model in swimlane layout:
  2. Right click on the diagram, and select Auto-Layout Left to Right. The auto-layout function corrects the display of your diagram.
  3. To save the changes, press Ctrl + S or click File > Save.
