Description Rodney Hergenrader CLA 2008-10-24 15:09:19 EDT 
Created attachment 116093 [details]
first of 3 diagrams showing corruptions

The activity detail diagrams are corrupted after the conversion process and maybe the diagram can be re-drawn after deletion or Redraw is performed, but when published, the diagram is corrupted even more. Then any diagram that is copy/extended via capability pattern(s) within the process are not updating, even after default synchronization is performed, nor will they refresh to the new version that is generated. Have even tried to delete and re-insert the Cap Pats to no avail. Diagram is just corrupted differently than it was before. Even some of the original diagrams, after saving/closing and then open again will corrupt.

Steps I would take are:
1. Converted files from 1.2.0.4 to 1.5 version of EPFC
2. Opened the activity detail diagram and had to reset the diagram, or even delete and re-draw the diagram for it to look correct.
3. Save and close the diagram and activity.
4. Open the inherited activity or pattern after synchonization, diagram is correupted.
This is occurring in about 90% of our diagrams for all 6 of our developed processes.

Thank you

Don't try to save ADD for now. This is known issue for now. If you don't save ADD and have this preference set "Method->Publishing/Browsing->Activity Detail Diagram-> Publish activity detail diagrams that have not been created in Process editor", ADD will get automatically generated during publishing and will be shown on published sites. 
Probably we will disable editing capability of ADD in long-term since most of our users does use these diagrams for read-only purpose, and automatic-generation of these diagrams suffice that purpose.

So here is what you need to do -
1. Go to back to all your corrupted ADDs in authoring.
2. Delete that diagram
3. Have the above preference set.
4. Let publishing do auto-geneate the diagram.
5. Even if you want to open the diagram in authoring, you can open it, just don't save it. 

Hope it helps. Thanks.
