Problems when saving business object diagram as image

When trying to save a business object diagram as an image, you might see the following issues:

  • It's not possible to save the diagram as a PNG image.
  • When saving the diagram as a SVG file, the icons representing the business object field types are not displayed correctly in the saved image. All the icons are rendered as "broken" images.

The workaround to save a diagram where the field icons are intact is to use the zoom in/out tools to make the entire diagram visible, and then to take a screen shot of the diagram using a screen capture application.
