No, there's no way to resize a group, because some objects can't be scaled manually (UML Class, for instance). Personally, I think that should be changed -- non-scaling objects should 1) be ignored when scaling a group, and 2) be fixed to allow scaling. It's silly that the LargePackage object, for example, is always 4 centimeter tall. > On this topic, does anyone know if there is plans to implement a > user-defined scale, so that the rulers on the top and left sides can > display, say, a scale of 1:50?

You can't change the units on the rulers yet, though. -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| H�rdgrim of Numenor "I do not agree with a word that you say, but I |---------------------------- will defend to the death your right to say it." | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket? _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
