When I drag a sub-process from the Diagram Navigator onto my Business Process Diagram, it inserts the subprocess (expanded) and makes all sorts of changes to the layout of my diagram (presumably it thinks it’s making space for the expanded sub-process), including expanding the length and width of the pool I’m adding the sub-process to, and moving all sorts of objects and flows around, including moving objects so they are no longer on the grid. With a large diagram it can take hours to rearrange everything neatly on the diagram, get all objects and flows re-aligned with the grid etc. This is a really annoying feature. Why can’t it insert the sub-process collapsed? Or if it must be expanded, just put it on top of everything that’s there, and let the user move things out of the way. Please don’t just move all my stuff around - I’ve spent may hours arranging it the way I want it.
As a work around, is there a way to insert a sub-process without disturbing the layout of the diagram?
