Can't resize groups, but you can adjust the settings so that dia will fit
your 
entire drawing on one sheet: 
(right click on diagram)->File->page setup->fit to 1 by 1
You can also choose A4 size paper here

yeah. These works. Thanx.

But if i print it, dia dont print some parts of it. :(

Try changing the grid size:
(right click on diagram)->view->diagram properties
You can also turn the snap to grid off.
(right click on diagram)->view->snap to grid

yeah, thats right. what i want and what i found very usefull under Visio is
the automatic draw of new grids.
I think its a feature in the next version. :)

create your own objects, or adapt existing objects so that you can change
the 
aspect ratio.
Anybody knows where to find documentation on creating objects?
