Display current webservice endpoint information

In the ProcessAdmin, If user doesn't input the "override endpoint" field, he won't know what current endpoint is. It doesn't make sense that user needs to go back the authoring environment to check what current value is for runtime. The product sh...

When creating an exclusive gateway, the labels along the lines (i.e. yes / no) can only be dragged along the line within a certain limit if the line is long. The system does not allow the user to drag it further.
