Save Process Discoverer views

After creating a view in Process Discoverer, we may want to display the exact same view later. For instance, we may select a different perspective, apply a filter, change the abstraction setting, or arrange the layout of activities. Creating the same view from scratch at a later time can be time-consuming. We can save our current view of Process Discoverer and display the same view later.

To save a view, click the save icon and select Save View.

Enter the name of the view and, optionally, a description. Click OK.

Let’s open the log afresh. This time, Process Discoverer displays the case frequency of activities at 100% nodes and 10% arc abstraction setting — the default view.

To load the saved view, click the Load view icon.

Click the view name.

Process discoverer now displays the saved view.

We can also delete a saved view if necessary. Click the Load view icon in Process discoverer and click Manage Views.

This displays the saved views associated to the log. To delete a view, select the view and click the delete icon.

Click Delete to confirm the delete.
