Hello fellow Lucid Champions!

Good morning! Introducing myself as I have joined the Lucid Champions community. Currently as a member of the Office of the President team for a technology company I've been utilizing Lucidchart for business process management. We diagram process flows for their creation and improvement. It has been very helpful for us!

Peut-on avoir des utilisateurs administrateur sans licence

Bonjour j'ai une équipe de 2 personnes au HelpDesk qui est amenée à ajouter ou révoquer des licences suite à l'arrivée/départ de collaborateurs. A ce jour je suis la seule administratrice et j'ai une licence que j'utilise. Demain je veux que mon équipe puisse être autonome. Leur mission n'inclut pas la modélisation. Quelle solution ? Merci :)

Account Map Roles

I would like to use Salesforce integration to create the Account Map but not connect the map to an opportunity. It belongs at the account level not opportunity. In order to have the Contact Roles of Buyer Decision Maker etc you need the Opportunity. Is there a way to get around this?

Lucidchart - it fixes everything!

My name is Ria and I am responsible for Quality and Digital Assurance at my company. This requires a lot of forward thinking brainstorming team work Process mapping and designing wire frames for Digital solutions. These processes were long boring and garnered little or no interest with the team. Since the onset of Covid pandemic we have been working virtually. I am very happy the the product offerings of Lucidchart - it encourages innovation and keeps employees motivated. They feel respected and appreciated as their suggestions are recorded and not lost

Printer errors

We use lucid.app to create our school newspaper. We download the pdf and send it to a printer. He is getting errors He says "I just wish it would produce a proper pdf." He also said "failed to split into single page pdf files. I'll just redistill as that seemed to work before. Preflighting did fix it too but not sure what else got changed." Any thoughts? What can we do on our end to help him? In Lucid we only have a standard and printer-friendly option when we download the pdf and we have tried both of them and he still gets errors.

Help Needed - Shapes/text resize when copied

I'm hoping that someone can help me here as this is driving me bonkers.I've created a diagram in one document and now want to copy it across on to a template that my company has.When I do this the text changes from Size 10 to Size 2 and the shapes appear tiny on the screen. I can't get to the bottom of it but it's taking up a lot of time to resize realign etc when I have already done the work.Is the there a setting that I am missing that is causing this madness?

Error with deleting account

Due to the fact that my account being free and serves no intended purpose anymore I've decided to delete my account. However anytime I attempt to do so a message pops up to inform me that there has been some error with this deletion process which is quite strange. After looking into it I found other community posts with people experiencing the same exact thing and still all I want is to delete this account yet the process set up by Lucid's database (?) is hindering me from doing so.
