Controlling the outcome of the Until loop

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Swami/Fred,
Try using the menu option "Show/Hide Blocks" (should be in the Graphic menu in the
workflow builder).
This is a standard feature that uses different shadings to indicate what blocks exist
and can be very useful when cutting and pasting.

Hello Swami,
 
When modelling a 'Loop until' the false-branch always goes to the newly created (undefined) activity above the
'Loop until' step. Next you have to model the steps that have to be repeated inside the loop (so between the
point where the branch goes to and the 'Loop until' step). If you want to include steps that are initially
outside of the loop (which I think is what you want, because I understand you have modelled them prior to the
loop), use the 'copy block' function to copy and paste parts of your workflow inside the loop.
 
The only problem I experienced is that it is not always clear what part of the workflow is a block and can be
copied/pasted as a whole.
 
Good luck.
 
Greetings Fred Kouw
