Selecting a highlight color
The default highlight color may be changed via the PReS Workflow Configuration preferences
(see "Colors" on page794).
A custom highlight color can be defined per task: open the task's properties (double-click) and
select or define a color under Highlight color on the Miscellaneous tab.
To revert the custom highlight color to the default color, open the Miscellaneous tab again, turn
the Highlight option off and close the dialog with the OK button; then turn highlighting back on.
Turning highlighting on and off via the task's contextual menu doesn't change the highlight
color.
Disabling tasks and branches
PReS Workflow lets you ignore individual tasks, branches or conditions.
l When a task is disabled, it is not executed when the process is run in Debug mode (see
"Debugging your PReS Workflow process" on page107) or by the PReS Workflow
Service.
l When a branch is disabled, the whole branch including the tasks inside that branch is
ignored and not executed. In the case of conditional branches, this means that the tasks
appearing on the True side are not executed.
A task, branch or condition that was previously disabled out can be re-enabled at any time.
To disable or enable a task or branch:
1.
In the PReS Workflow Process area, click the icon of a task or branch.
2.
From the Debug tab in the Ribbon, click Ignore. If the task or branch was enabled, it is
now disabled, and vice versa.
Moving a task or branch using drag-and-drop
When you want to move a given task or branch, the simplest way is to use drag-and-drop.
Using the mouse, you can drag and drop tasks and branches only within a given process. To
move tasks and branches between different processes, see "Cutting, copying and pasting tasks
and branches" on page917.
