Title: PutDiagramImageOnClipboard image resolution
Post by: rty on September 04, 2015, 06:10:08 pm

Using the Project class OLE interface PutDiagramImageOnClipboard retrieves a diagram from EA and puts it into the clipboard. Unfortunately, the image resolution is unearthly bad. For a medium sized diagram (fits to half a page, format 'Letter'), the text is barely readable.

Any way to improve that?

I think the options
Tools|Options|General|Clipboard
and
Tools|Options|Diagram|Image Memory Limit

can be used to control that.

Already tried that -- apologies that I did not mention that. Unfortunately, increasing the memory limit (set to 512 MB) and the clipboard options (already set to Metafile) did not solve the problem.

Hmph. Setting EA.Project.PutDiagramImageOnClipboard parameter Type to 1 (bitmap) improves the visual experience.
