Hi everyone, welcome again to Flowzap,
the easiest way to produce your process
diagrams.
In our previous tutorial, we have
learned the basics of how to create a
diagram.
Today we will continue with our previous
example diagram about the firing an
employee process. But now we're going to
explore how to apply modifications to a
diagram.
So how do we do this?
Let's start by saying that every shapes
and arrows can be modified.
Essentially, you just have to rightclick
on the shape to edit the label of the
shape or to delete it. Then you just
need to apply your change by saving it.
These options apply to circles,
rectangles, to diamonds, and to arrows.
That's one way to apply modifications.
The other way to apply modifications is
to go directly into the FlowZap code
editor. That's the icon right here.
FlowZap code is a DSL domainspecific
language designed for describing simple
workflow diagrams.
As you can see, diagramming this process
has automatically generated the FlowZap
code. I can just click in the code field
here to make my edits.
In the code, I have all of my shapes and
components with their respective labels.
What I would like to do is to modify the
diamond shape here, the N9 component, so
that our arrow does not start from the
top of the shape, but from the right
side.
So, I'm just going to edit it and update
it.
The code has been created to be easily
readable by anyone.
All right. As we can see that instead of
going from the top of the shape, the
arrow now starts from the right side
here.
Now I'll apply some layout changes to
this diagram to make it prettier.
And I'm going to save it for later.
This is how you can apply modifications
and edits to your FlowZap diagrams.
All right, let's stop here for now.
We'll continue to explore more FlowZap
diagramming capabilities in the next
tutorial. Have a great one.
