Explanation

This rule calculates whether or not your flow can be displayed on a standard screen. If not, you are advised to refactor for maintainability reasons.

We estimate that resolving this issue will on average take 15 minutes.

Possible improvement

When opening a flow that does not fit your standard viewport, it is possible that elements in the flow are off the screen, this could lead to errors being made in analysis or implementation of changes. Try to restructure the flow to fit the screen or think about putting parts of the flow in sub-flows.

Parameters

maxY

By default the flow viewport rule checks if the flow does not exceed the boundaries of the default viewport which is x=1700, y=800. By settings these properties the viewport can be made smaller or bigger.

Default Value:
800
maxX
