Title: Default orientation for activity partition
Post by: bechbp on May 05, 2022, 02:03:25 pm

Hello,

The default orientation for activity partition is the horizontal orientation. Is there a way to change that default to be vertical orientation?

Thank you

There a good chance the project template package might work for this.

I just did a quick test, and it works. If you create a vertical activitypartition in the project template package, the default orientation changes to vertical.

Toward the bottom explains HOW to manage the project templates: ... You can create the Templates Package anywhere in your model; however, it is better to create it in a location that is not likely to be accidentally changed or lost in any project development work.

Set up the Element Templates Package

Thanks as Always Geert!

Thank you all for the advice. I will try out the template option and report back.
