Print Preview and printing prob

Hello,

I have drawn a diagram of some 30 boxes and some 35 connections on FC.NET control.

Each of the boxes have a text property which is set to some text.

When i do a print preview (print preview ex) of this diagram it shows nicely.

however when i say "FitToPage", it retains the same font size, but the boxes are scaled to a lesser size.

This makes the diagram look messy and not good.

Can you please suggest something to make the font size of the box to scale and fit accordingly?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Phil

Hi Phil,

you have to use GraphicsUnit.World when creating the fonts, then the fonts scale smoothly.

When i change the Font.Unit property to GraphicsUnit.World, the fonts do not display on the boxes.

I attempted to change the Font.Unit property of the Flowchart  object.

What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance

Cheers

Phil

Using World as the font size unit will make the font manager use the flowchart's MeasureUnit, which is millimeters by default. So you might have to use a smaller value for the font size when specifying it in millimeters, e.g. try with 2.5 or 3.
