Size Limitation on the Modeling Canvas?

There is a limit. You can explore it by placing any symbol to the very far right and bottom. Maybe set the zoom factor to 10% first.

If you printed the entire canvas without margins to A3 paper format in portrait it would be ~17 pages wide and ~12 pages high. That would make the entire canvas ~ 5 m x 5 m, so 25 m²

AFAIK the limit is 25 square meters. Back in the early nineties the ARIS inventors thought that such a incredibly huge modeling size would never ever be reached by any model.

"Walking on models" would become true on such a supersized model...

Please apply for Guiness World Records once you reach that limitation.

I have seen real process examples of customers, where they modelled processes horizontally and eventually had to continue in a second model because of reaching the 5 m width limit. But the central problem I would point out is this: Who is going to sign with his blood for the correctness of such a model? You may have the daunting task of creating this model, but is anyone going to maintain it on a regular basis?

Does it have value, if it were a one-time effort, outdated next week? Who are you trying to impress with that? Is anyone actually going to work with it? Smaller models tend to be easier to check for correctness and to assume responsibility for.

Thanks for the comments - I am just the one tasked with putting in the tool - Not my model :)  I can only recommend other solutions - in this situation :)

Thanks for the responses -
