Problem with font size in text nodes and problem with Model.SizeToContent

[Pierre CHAUSSEE]

Hi,

We have two problems : you can both see them in the provided sample application.

First : The text in text nodes appears bold, and when we change color there are some black borders around it. How can we remove those black borders ?

Second : It seems Model.SizeToContent = True doesn''t work quite well : i the end the size of the model does not fetch the size of the content. How can we do that ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Syl,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

1. I am afraid but I was not able to reproduce this issue. The textNode renders correctly and I don't see any black lines when I change the color.

2. Also, the "SizeToContent" property by default sets a definite default size for it so that it accidentally do not collapse! For the said reason, you were not able to get to see the Model resize it automatically to the content placed below the said default "threshold".

Attached with this mail is my sample file and snapshot.

However, you have any trouble still, then I would be glad if you could also provide us with the snap shot along with your Syncfusion Essential Studio product details with version number.

Let me know if you shall need any further clarifications here.

Happy Coding!

Hello,

The fonts problem is related to the fonts rendering parameters in windows apprearence / effects. When you choose standard, it is ok, when you use "ClearType", it appears in bad shape

The resize problem is about to be finished at our size

Thanks

Hi Ajeet,

Thank you for your answer.
Ok, for the first problem, it doesn't matter.

For the other one, I still don't get it.
What do I have to do to make it resizes itself to the content nodes ? I did try this :

Model.SizeToContent = True

Model.DocumentSize = New PageSize(385, 285)

and it did not change anything, could you give me some details on how to activate autosize ?

Thank you.

Hi Syl,

Sorry for the wrong update, but this is not a defect. We have a property called Minimum Size in Model class, that ensures the default "Threshold" value size for the Model Document.

Please use the following code snippet for changing the default threshold value:

*********

this.diagram1.Model.MinimumSize = new SizeF(200, 200);
this.diagram1.Model.BoundaryConstraintsEnabled = false;
this.diagram1.Model.SizeToContent = true;

*********

Let me know if you shall need any further clarifications here.

Happy Coding!

Hi Ajeet,

Thank your for your answer, it worked !
I have a last question though, is there anyway I can center the model in the ASP.Net control ?
somehting like Me.DiagramWeb1.View.CenterModel = True
or anything like this ?

Again, thank you,
Pierre
