How To Use Custom Page Sizes In DB Diagram

[manoncloud9]

What is the procedure for utilizing one of the Custom Page Sizes on a Database Diagram. I've tried to select Custom 1 through 20 but there seems to be no way to see what the actual size for each Custom setting is, and when I check OK in the Options box to save a Custom size, it gets replaced with A4 when I go back and check it.

I've looked for a way to set the size values for a Custom setting, but have not been able to find a method to accomplish this.

Any recommendations?

This can be changed as follows:

1. Right-click the diagram and select 'Options...' from the popup menu.
2. Switch to the 'Page' tab.
3. Select the required paper size.
4. Click 'OK'.

In case you would like to change the default setting, please perform the following:

1. Select 'Tools -> Options...' from the main menu. The 'Options' window opens.
2. Navigate to the 'Database Diagram -> Page' branch.
3. Select the required paper size.
4. Click 'OK'.

This doesn't answer the question. What are the sizes established for Custom 1 - 20? There is no indication of what the custom sizes are or how to modifiy them. My diagram is too large to fit on the standard sizes.

Also, this doesn't address the issue of selecting a coustom size and the setting reverting back to A4 when you return to the options dialog box.

Unfortunately, this is not governed by dbForge. It just uses the standard paper size formats.

You can export the database diagram to one of the available formats with the 'Export to Image' feature available in the popup menu of the diagram and then open and print it with some other tools. Please also see the following article http://blog.devart.com/how-to-save-data ... image.html

Please note that when you change the 'Page' settings through 'Tools -> Options...' in the main menu, this doesn't apply to the already opened diagram. To change the 'Page' settings of the already opened diagram, you have to right-click the diagram and select 'Options...' from the popup menu (rather than selecting 'Tools -> Options...' in the main menu).
