Diagrams in RTF Reports
« on: June 27, 2008, 08:20:05 pm »
Hello,

I am generating RTF reports from the EA model that I have created.  The model consists of packages, which in turn contains class information.  Each package also contains a class diagram.

I generate the RTF report by selecting the Documentation -> Rich Text Format (RTF) Report menu item that appears when right-clicking on a package.

I have created a template for the generated document, which results in the generated document containing each package, class information for each class in each package, and also the class diagram for each package.

Everything looks fine in the document when generated, apart from the diagrams.  Some of them are truncated, and some of them appear to small in the document even when the diagram themselves are not that big.

Is there a way of forcing each diagram in the document to be of a fixed size - or is there a way to stop the diagrams from at least being truncated in the document?

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Jason.

Edit the template, Oper: File -> Document Options. If the Diagram format field has te value Metafile, change it to Bitmas, then try again.

Hello Jason,

The RTF generator is set by default to scale diagrams to the page if larger than a page.  7.1 does support an option in the Diagram Propoerties under the Diagram Tab : RTF Document Options | Divide Diagrams into multiple pages.  You can set this for larger diagrams to ensure scaling does not minimise the diagram.  
In terms long diagrams and of parts of the diagram being off the bottom of a page - there has been a correction for this - but I am not sure which build - you might try the latest build.
Otherwise I would suggest you send through examples to the support email address - see below.
