Flowcode v10 2D Panel Zoom Function

Post by liudeqiang_2008 »

Hello

When using 2D panels, the default icons and fonts are inconsistent. Some are clear, some are fine, and some are too small to be easily recognized.

And the panel cannot be zoomed in or out as a whole, only by manually enlarging the small icons one by one, then the accompanying fonts become larger. Manual dragging can also cause icon deformation, affecting the aesthetic appearance of the interface.

I tried adjusting the font size in the global settings, but it didn't seem to be helpful here.

Can we add an overall panel zoom function (similar to a flowchart window, where holding down CTRL while scrolling the mouse can zoom in and out of the entire panel).

Alternatively, select a single or multiple icons that need to be enlarged and right-click to set the zoom ratio for them.

This is what I fell during use, and it is also possible that there are related functions but I am not sure. So please let me know how to do it.

Thanks,
Br, Deqiang

Thanks for the suggestion. The 2d panels in the next major version of Flowcode will have a zoom feature. We're getting close with this new version and we should be able to announce more details in the next month or so.

Hello,
There is an option to make all selected components the same size as the first selected component.
First select the component that is the required size.

Hold the Ctrl key down and left click all the other components to want to resize.
Click the resize option on the top of the 2D panel.

Now all the selected component will be the same size.

A tip. When a component is selected, select the Position tab, then select Yes for Lock aspect ratio.
You then then drag the corner to resize and the component will remain in shape.

I have FC V8 and FC V9, thinking of upgrading to V10 Now,
Could you please suggest if I should wait for the NEW version, or go ahead and buy V10 Now?

We have not finalised pricing for the next version of Flowcode, so I cannot answer this yet.
