Re: Does everyone make large objects, or is it just how I am using Dia?

Howdy!

I am just learning Dia and was about to try my hand at making some shapes.  I notice the shapes I have used in Dia are very large, the borders are very thick at 0.1cm and the font is also large at 22.68pt (5/16").

As I make my shapes, I would want to make them so they fit 9 pt font size (1/8" tall), which is what I consider to be the perfect size (so studies say for us CAD users), and the borders would be 0.5 mm thick instead of 0.1cm.  This means I would make much smaller shapes.  Would anyone be able to use those shapes, or want to?

Just scale the page to whatever you want I use around 40% for UML diagrams and works pretty well but YMMV

Best,
