Scale collaboration
« on: April 19, 2005, 05:38:54 am »
Hi,

for an article, I wanted to scale a collaboration in a non-proportional way (i.e., I want to increase its width without increasing its height). However, this doesn't seem to be possible. I would be glad if someone could help me with this - I'm new to EA.

Thank you very much in advance,
Falk

You will likely have to make a copy of the diagram and stretch the copy manually.

Just too make sure that I'm not missing something: you suggest to rework the diagram in some other program, right?

I think it is not posible to strech use-cases types non-proportionally.
Another way i can think of is taking a screenshot of the collaboration, cropping and streching it in an image editor and the importing the streched image into the proyect.
Finally change the appearence of the collaboration to use the image.

Hello Falk and all,

Please check 'Allow elongated Use Cases' option
in 'Objects' group of Local Option dialog.

(It's effective for Collaboration, too.)

Hi all,

indeed, the 'Allow elongated Use Cases' option works for collaborations, too. Not the place I would have a look first, but anyway: Thank you very much!

Kindest regards,
Falk
