Error description

  • Deletion of BPMN swim lanes deletes Sequence Flow connectors
    between the moved elements.
    
    Steps to reproduce:
    
    1. Create a BPMN Project.
    2. Add 3 lanes with an Event Start in Lane1 connected to Task1.
    3. Add Task2 in Lane2 connected to Task1.
    4. Add an End Task and Task3 in Lane3 connected to Task2 in
    Lane2 and connected to an End Task in Lane3.
    5. Move Task2 from Lane2 to either Lane1 or Lane3.
    6. Delete Lane2.
    7. Note that the Sequence Flow connector from Task2 to Task3
    gets deleted.
    
    Also, observed that if you move the Start Event and Task1 from
    Lane1 to Lane2 and delete Lane1, both Sequence Flow connectors
    are deleted.
    But, if you move Task3 and End Event from Lane3 to Lane2 and
    delete Lane3, only the Sequence Flow connector from Task3 to End
    Event gets deleted.

    The sequence flow between the moved elements are deleted
    when the lane, from which the elements were moved is
    deleted.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The sequence flow between the moved elements are retained
    when the lane, from which the elements were moved is
    deleted.
