Upgrade v1.0 to 2.0 sizing issues

Hi,

We have been using v1.0 Trial of WPFDiagram and have all of the sizes just as we like them (using Millimeter as a MeasureUnit).

We then just recently purchased v2.0 of WPFDiagram and tried to upgrade the existing diagrams to the new version.  What's happening is that the default unit of measurement changed from Millimeter to WpfPoint (I read other forums where that was done intentionally and that's fine), but what happens is when I change the MeasureUnit to Millimeter and then reset all of the sizes back to their original values, nothing happens - the Diagram is still showing large fonts, huge link arrow heads, etc.

Is this a known issue or (more likely) what am I doing wrong?

As always, thanks in advance for your time - you guys have a great product and I love using it!

Neal

Hi,

If you change MeasureUnit back to Millimeter you would have to set the values of all size-related default-value properties in Diagram, e.g. LinkHeadSize, Font.Size, etc. They are listed in the  MeasureUnit topic in the help file. You could multiply each of them by 25.4 / 96 to get default values suitable for millimeters.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Stoyan,

I did do that - but it looks like the values aren't being accepted for some reason.  No matter what I change the various properties to (LinkHeadShapeSize, etc.) they stay the same size.  I know these values aren't being set in code; I am changing them in the Properties pane in the VS IDE.

Any thoughts?

Hi Neal,

The values of these properties are loaded too when calling LoadFromXml. What exactly are you trying to do - set the Diagram properties back to the v1.0 values so that your application continues using millimeters, or scale an old diagram after calling LoadFromXml so that it's measured in WpfPoint?

Hi Stoyan,

My mistake - I was modifying the properties on a form that was actually not being used.  Once I found the form that IS being used and made the changes, it's all fine.

Sorry to have wasted your time Sad
