Font modification on sequence diagram
« on: May 05, 2021, 09:30:30 pm »
Hello forum,

I need to change the font for message that is set to 8 and I need to set it to 12.
Basically I do not have the possibility to modify the font to all project since the flow chart already developed will be misaligned.

Do you have any idea how to proceed?

1. Is it possible to modify only the font to a message in a sequence diagram?
2. Is it possible to modify the font to all project without misaligning the contents already designed or realigning them automatically?

Best Regards,
P.

The answers would be a) no and therefore b) no. You can only set the font globally for everything. And that would not only misalign the SDs but, you guessed it, anything.

In case you have a very, very long breath: send a feature request. I would guess that there are already a couple of them on Sparx' desk (who knows how their cleaning personell works?). But eventually yours might be the drop that overflows the barrel (as we say in Germany).
