Design/Workflow miniaturization

MRPP

Hi All,

 

Need your help with steps to miniaturize uncomfortably long workflows, say into 'Boxes', where each such Box comprises of 'sub-flows', i.e., group of tools logically connected to provide output, based on input. I tried containers, but (may be I missed) wasn't able to 'shrink' them, so essentially, moving 'sub-flow' into this container didn't help save canvas space. In the attached image I have marked RED BOXES that can be miniaturized, for ex.

 

The actual workflow is actually at least 10 times bigger :-D

 

Thanks in advance !

@MRPP when you say you weren't able to shrink them, did you mean like this? Unless you disable the container, the tools inside will still run and you'll obviously save space by having it minimised:

@DataNath My apologies for the late response, but THANK YOU. I felt so stupid for not trying that out before posting :-D.

No problem at all @MRPP! Don’t worry about it - it’s easy to look over and often the smallest parts of the tool configurations have the biggest impact!
