Printing swimlanes

[gordie]

Having trouble printing my activity diagrams with swimlanes that go over multiple pages - the swimlane names just print on the first page - any ideas if this can be changed and how?

Try diagram properties / Page Size / Advanced... / Scale to 1 Page.

Gordie,

This can produce rather arbitrary resizing when you scale large diagrams. In particular, when a diagram is really oblong (either orientation) scaling can give you a very strange result.

Perhaps it is worth thinking this through, to come up with a way to propagate the headings to each page without trashing the semantics or UML conformance of the diagram.

In the meantime, have you tried breaking the diagram into several pieces, and tying them together with some kind of 'continuation' nodes. This works fairly well (in EA) for activity diagrams, but involves some effort. IMHO the ability to label the connector nodes could be improved. I think there was some discussion about this in the forum. It was some time ago, but perhaps worth a search, in case an acceptable (for you) workaround was proposed.

You could try a feature linked Note - unfortunately you can't connect it to to the Partition Name, but you could use the Note or a tagged value?
