Hi,
I have tried multiple times to model a process diagram. And each time, the diagram is getting readonly after a while and it is not allowing me to make any changes, add any activity or add any connector.
Even the earlier working versions from where I moved ahead has become readonly and got all jumbled up.
Please advise.
I dont see any option on the forum to attach the multiple .BPMN diagram or the xml file.
Regards
Hi,
I had (have) the same problem. It seems to work, just the view isn’t updated anymore.
Temporary solution:
Save the diagram, exit program and reload the file.
Regards
I tried reloading the current version as well as the older files and all of them are read only and not updating any changes.Not even connector from one activity to the other, let alone creating new activity.
How did it work for you…I mean , if its not visible, how to be sure that the flow is there??
Thanks fro replying.
As it’s my second day with BPMN, i just tried out what i can do with the Modeler.
Did you close the file or the whole program?
I tried both with different versions of BPMN
You can upload your bpmn and xml as attachments. Just drag your files into the browser.
Jumbled: happens with all elements or only some? You are on latest version of modeler?
Read only: are you saving your files to a network drive, google drive, box etc? One of those local folder sync type of scenarios?
Is the jumbled problem similar to this:
?
When I am dragging the xml files, it is just openingin the browser.I cannot attach them.
I am saving the files on my local driver . I am using latest modeller 1…2. Jumbled happened for only one file for one of the activities.
But all the files have become readonly and cannot make or move the connectors, new activities.Evertime, if I open those BPMN files, they must be editable, dont you think so, irrespective of any case.
Please guide me.
As a matter of fact, I am creating a POC as part of evaluating this product, but seems like cannot be suggested to any enterprise to buy this yet.
Thanks for reverting back.
Hi,
what do you mean by readonly? Can you still move elements or move the canvas? What you could do is to open the dev tools in the Camunda Modeler (in the menu: Window -> Toggle Dev Tools or F12) and check if there are any errors which are preventing bpmn-js to work properly. This would help us to get to the root of the problem.
readonly means non editable.
I cannot move any element from one place to another or addany connector from one element to the other.
Even if ther will be errors, it should let me change it to correct one, right, it should not just become non-editable and people will have to restart the p rocess design from scratch.
As a matter, I have done this thing thrice, still get same issue, not initially, but after a while.

@vaibhaw.raj Do exactly this if you’d like to help solve this problem.
Hey,
Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried Toggle Dev tool and found it saying 118 errors. The errors are for all the sequence flows etc saying no parent for ;sequence flows" while in diagram, all the flows are connected and in only on case, the flow disappeared automatically.
Does this happen with other people also. And even if the errors are there, the diagram should still be editable.
I am just a beginner of this product and trying out. PLease help.
Please share your diagram with us. There are many broken BPMN 2.0 diagrams out there.
You may either experience a broken diagram export glitch here or a bug in our modeler.
In either case, we need your diagram to reproduce this.

Please find the attached files which I tried many times but same issue. Its not letting me complete the diagram itself and showing error with F12.
Please advise.

Any update??Were you able to reproduce the issue??
I had the time to look into your diagram.
One issue is that you used the ID loan_approval twice. Because of that your diagram imports as a process diagram with embedded lanes. This is something we do not support for modeling.
I am currently investigating two things we can improve on our side:
I’ll report back once we do any progress on these issues.
Camunda Modeler v1.2.2 should now warn you on dupllicate ids in your diagrams.
