Title: Association labels resizing themselves? Huh?!
Post by: Andrew_Webster on February 16, 2003, 03:35:22 pm

Has anyone elase had this happen to their diagrams?

For no apparent reason, the labels on associations are no longer the neat little areas that just cover their contents, but have re-sized to about ten times their original height.

As I've no idea what's caused this, I thought I'd put it to the forum before submitting it as a bug in case someone can tell me if I've done something dumb. (It's been known... ::))

TIA

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I've seen resizing of labels when I copied diagrams. The labels become about twice the size. I think it's a bit buggy, I would like to have those labels always resized to textsize.

Greetings,

Well, the diagrams I'm dealing with haven't been copied, so there must be more than one way to get these labels to start misbehaving.  I'll see if there are any other responses to this post before I submit it as a bug, just so I can submit as much information as possible.

Anyone else get this weirdness?

All the best

Andrew

Hi all,

Coping with association (and, for that matter, all types of relationships) label spaces resizing themselves is one of the few sources of discontent I have with EA. When I click somewhere in the diagram, get a highlighted association label space, instead of what I was expecting, is oftentimes bothersome.

Thanks for bringing up the point, which is an oportunity to ask Sparx to take a look at this problem.

OK, I'll stop 'notifying' myself on this thread and just report it as a bug.

Thanks all

Andrew

Hi all,

I couldnt duplicate the problem as described - but I assume there must be a case where it does occur. I have modified the next build to include a forced resize of the selection rectangle so that the size should always snap back to the best fit, regardless of other conditions.

This change will be in build 603.

Cheers,
