How to view process properties in BPMN with existing pool?

BPMN & Modeling Discussion & Questions
1

I’m using camunda-modeler 1.9.0

Case one: BPMN without pool / participants.

  • opened: properties of process are shown
  • click a task: properties of task are shown
  • click somewhere in the “empty” place: properties of process are shown

→ fine and as expected

Case two: BPMN with pool / participants.

  • opened: properties of collaboration are shown
  • click somewhere in the “empty” place between tasks (which are in the first participant): properties of participant_1 are shown (fine)
  • click again: properties of collaboration are shown, these steps can be done more than once to switch between these (fine)
  • click a task: properties of task are shown
  • click somewhere out of the collaboration: properties of collaboration are shown

I’d consider this a bug (likely in bpmn.io parts). Is there currently an issue for this?
Any idea how to open the process properties (I can only access them in the XML…)

Hi @cmensch,

just click into the process area where the name of the pool is shown.

Ah, I see - it shows both the properties of the participant and the properties of the process.
This is a little bit confusing (I did not see this behavior on any other element) but ok…
