Does Sparx Element Size/Position Panel?
« on: January 27, 2022, 10:03:25 am »
Hey all

Given I have been using Sparx for well North of a decade now, this seems to be an insane question to only be asking now, but is there a panel that allows you to view and edit the size and position of a specific element?

Cheers

Jays :-)

The status bar tells you the position and size of the selected diagram object but doesn't allow you to edit them. Preferences > Window Behavior > Hide Status Bar = OFF

Hmmm, I can't seem to find preferences in the ribbon.
Is it buried elsewhere? I'm on 15.1.

Cheers :-)

Yeah, the options jungle of EA...  Use the Start ribbon (unless it will strangle you) and look for the Preferences icon somewhere in the middle. That has a Preferences menu on top. Right in the opening window the second to the left entries is the Windows... The Hide is somewhere in the middle right then.

So I put together a search party including 5 architects and 7 sherpas and after extensive exploration, I finally found the "wanted" option.

Thanks q!
