Symptom
After importing from Blue Works Live BPMN Diagram looks skewed in the signavio explorer
Cause
The BPMN XML file contains elements (all gateways and events) whose sizes are defined to be smaller than our minimum size, i.e.
- start or end event: width="24.0" height="24.0" while our minimum size is 30
- gateways: width="32.0" height="32.0" while our minimum size is 40
So during import the size of these elements are changed to our minimum size. The center of the elements can end up being moved thus causing skewed sequence flows to preceding/succeeding elements.
Resolution
Workarounds
- Increase the size of all elements in the source tool to the minimum sizes enforced in Signavio
- Adjust the XML file manually or via a script before import
- Open the XML file in a text editor
- Replace all occurrences of
width="32.0" height="32.0"
with
width="40.0" height="40.0"
-
- Perform the same replacement for events ("24.0" with "30.0")
- Save the file and import it
