Hi,

When i import stradraw online symbol (Symbol componants > Pictural Schematics > Connectors Front > HDMI) for exemple in a rack layout. The size are completely wrong... too small :/

And no way to resize.Sad

Is there a way to do that?

Regards

Symbols are drawn at scales that are appropriate for the particular drawing type the symbol is designed for, so if you are working in a Rack Layout drawing, don't use the component symbol that's designed for Pictorial Schematics; instead use, for example, Stardraw Online Symbols | Symbol Components | Rack Layout | Connectors Front | HDMI.

Also, any symbol can be resized; in the Properties Grid change Handle Behavior from 'Move' to 'Resize'.  Because symbols are drawn to a specific scale there should be no reason to resize them, and this is why the default Handle Behavior is Move, to avoid accidental resizing which would make the symbol not-to-scale.

I hope this is helpful.
