Is there a way to freeze swimlane headers in Lucidchart?

Ruth

Thanks for reaching out in the Lucidchart Community! Unfortunately it is currently not possible to freeze the swim lane headers. However we're always looking for ways to improve Lucidchart and your feedback is the best way for us to do that - I’ve gone ahead and converted this to an idea in our Product Feedback space so that you and others can comment on and upvote it. 

To learn more about how to work with swim lanes in Lucidchart please read through our Add and format swim lanes in Lucidchart article from our help center.  

Thanks for your request!

As a work-around I duplicated the headers at the end of each swimlane and any subsections within the swimlanes in 25% opacity text.  This at least allows the reader to not have to scroll all the way to the left to see which swimlane they are looking at. 

I sent this suggestion to Lucidchart as well in case they can't freeze the headers where maybe they can make it more streamlined so if I adjust the length of the swimlane I don't have to move the text boxes for each swim lane over and over.  Fingers crossed.

Hi @kimberly b thanks for sharing your workaround and submitting a feature request - this is so valuable!
