Layout models using default palette (extended)
You can automatically adapt the layout of models created based on the classic default symbol palette to the current symbol palette.
The macro Layout models using default palette enables you to perform this operation automatically for individual models, groups, or the entire ARIS database. The size of objects, connections, graphic objects, free-form texts, and COM objects is automatically adjusted, and the items are moved in order to prevent overlapping. Operations are logged depending on your settings.
Prerequisites
You are a configuration administrator for this tenant.
Your user account has been assigned the Database administrator function privilege in ARIS Administration.
The models are based on model types that are included by the macro. Some model types are excluded.
Define a Boolean attribute to be used to identify all models whose layout is to be changed.
Adapt the macro.
Change the default symbol palette and run the macro.
The layout of the models has been adapted. All changed models are listed in the log file.
If any models could not be changed, for example, because they were being edited or because errors occurred, these are also listed. If you have defined a Boolean attribute, you can run the macro again later.
