Hi,

Is it possible to adjust the size of the canvas for drawing? The default size is set 1000x1000px, but I would like to be able to change this default size.

Thanks.

Martin

hello

The size of the Sirius diagram depends on the position of the element on the bottom-right corner of the diagram.
I don't know what in sirius would depend on a canvas default size.

Feel free to provide additional information.

Laurent

Hi,

I understand the size of the Sirius diagram depends on the position of the element on the bottom-right corner of the diagram.

Is there an option to set the diagram size programmatically? I would like to set a size such as 1200x1200px (according to the set ruler units - Pixels) when creating a new diagram.

Thanks.

Martin

Hi,
I don't think there is a "diagram size". Where do you see the default size of Quote:

1000x1000px

in your initial post?

As explained here [1], when a diagram is exported as image, the size is computed.

Regards,

Laurent

Hi,

I'm sorry, those 1000x1000px were a mistake (I thought so).

I understand how the diagram size is calculated when exporting an image. But I need to set the size of the diagram (or at least the size of the bottom / right margin) when diagram is created.

I need the size not to be calculated according to the position of the element on the bottom-right corner of the diagram but to be set by the user. If the size is smaller (eg 100x100px) than the size of the diagram (for example, the node on the bottom-right corner of the diagram will be at 800x500px), the scrollbar will active, and if larger (eg 1000x1000px), the whole diagram will be visible.

Thanks.

Martin
