Process flow is not showing

[ FlexSim 20.2.2 ]

Hello,

In this model, I have a process flow called "Passenger". Somehow I got an error "destroy node" out of nowhere while working, I closed the model and opened it again, and the process flow stopped showing. I can only see the grid without all the activities. Also, I can still view it in the tree.

How can I solve this problem?

@Nouf Because FlexSim is very open it is possible that you have created a memory error and corrupted a Process Flow activity that way. What you could try is removing parts of the process flow to find what activity is corrupt. So remove bottom half of the Process Flow in the tree view (maybe save the model under a different name and reopen) and check. If it then is alright, remove again half of the bottom half etc... Sometimes you can find the culprit and by replacing it getting your model back. Besides the autosave there is also the backup file with fsm! extension, you can also see if that one is still ok.
For future try using a version control system like git or mercurial (I like and use the last one because I find it easier and more logical)

It's worth noting that this can happen through no fault of the user.
