Reducing Displayed Chart Size

As Raptor flowcharts grow, it can sometimes be difficult to see the desired portions of a flowchart in the editing window. One way to address this potential problem is to collapse the view of loops and selections. When the views of these structures are collapsed, the individual steps in the selection or loop are hidden. The view of a loop or selection is collapsed by clicking on the NOT_COLLAPSED.BMP symbol next to the diamond.

 

 

For a selection, the view goes from this:

SELECT_BEFORE_COLLAPSE.BMP

to this:

SELECT_COLLAPSED.BMP

 

 

 

You can tell the selection is collapsed by the collapsed.bmp symbol next to the diamond. The view can be expanded by clicking on the collapsed.bmp symbol.

 

For a loop, the view goes from this:

LOOP_BEFORE_COLLAPSE.BMP

to this:

LOOP_COLLAPSED.BMP

 

 

Again, the collapsed.bmp symbol next to the diamond shows that the view is collapsed. The view can be expanded by clicking on the collapsed.bmp symbol.
