Ari,
The behaviour of Automatic Resize is different than what you are expecting. It only automatically resizes when the icons change or when the function is turned on. If you want to apply this to all items in a diagram you can use Format>Autosize All. See the note under the help section entitled: "Automatic Resize (Format Menu)" I hope this helps, Paul Cooley --- Ari__Vi�ar_J�hannesson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes Automatic Resize was turned on in Tools Options > and Format->Automatic Resize does not work the way > it is described in your comments below. > > Format->Automatic Resize is checked for all classes > in my diagram but still they show class names split > into two lines.
