Modeling support for lane models

Smart Modeling is also available for lane models. If you select an object in a lane model, insert icons are displayed for the object. Click an insert icon, select the object you want to connect with the current object, and drag it to the position where you want to drop it.

For lane models of type EPC (material flow) and EPC (column display) Smart modeling is fully supported.

If an object is allowed in the current lane, clicking an insert icon places the object in the corresponding direction and adjusts the layout. If there is not enough space for the new object to be placed on the right or bottom of a lane, the lane is enlarged. If there is not enough space for the new object to be placed on the left or top of a lane, the lane is enlarged, the object is inserted, and the existing objects are moved.
