You can optimize the size and layout of diagram elements with the mouse or keyboard. Certain elements are automatically optimized.
Double-click with left mouse button
The mouse pointer is hovering over one of the selection rectangle's handles. The element's size is optimized on this side, i.e. the element is made as small as possible on this side.
Keyboard
-
Optimize Size (F8)
Element size is optimized on all sides, i.e. the element is resized to be as small as possible without changing the size and position of the contents
-
Standard Layout (Ctrl+F8)
Element has a standard layout. This is normally the shortest connection between the linked elements for connection frames; movable text is arranged as standard.
Optimizing Text Field Size
Node and edge text which you can modify the size for are automatically adjusted to multi lines once a certain width is reached upon optimization and text modification. This means that longer text is wrapped and the field width is constrained. A width/length ration of 5:1 is set if the width is longer than ten cells. You can manually adjust the width.
