I just purchased the upgrade from OmniGraffle 4 Pro to OmniGraffle 5 Pro, and overall I'm very pleased with it.

However, at least a few (maybe all) of my drawings were re-scaled (or their canvases were rescaled). In one example, with OmniGraffle 4 Pro, most of the document fit on a single-page canvas, with "extra" stuff I didn't want printed off to the side.

With OmniGraffle 5 Pro, the part I want printed now stretches across 4 pages (2x2). Its as if either all my objects were scaled up or the canvas itself was scaled down. Otherwise, the drawing seems fine. This is the case with all 3 of the OmniGraffle 4 Pro drawings I've opened with OmniGraffle 5 Pro...

Any ideas how best to fix this? Selecting "Print canvas on one printer sheet" is not a good solution because I sometimes don't want to print everything...

EDIT: I selected everything, then shift-dragged the bottom-right selection handle to resize my objects until the sizes were right. This wasn't perfect, though, as the text was now too large. So I selected it all and changed the font size as well (thank goodness all my text except for one line was using the same font, style, and size). Still is there an easier way? This will be a real pain to do for all of my old drawings!

If all you need to do is make sure that your canvases will fit to one page, all you have to do is check the "Auto-adjust the canvas size" checkbox in the Canvas Size Inspector, and then check the "Print canvas on one printer sheet" box just below it.

If you need different print scaling, those controls live in the Page Setup dialog.

Any idea why OmniGraffle 5 Pro rescaled my OmniGraffle 4 Pro documents in the first place?

DarylF2, not sure, but it _sounds_ like "auto-adjust canvas size" got turned on in your documents. (This is actually a per-canvas setting.) If that is on, then the canvas is automatically resized to contain any content that falls off the bottom or right of the canvas.

To turn it off, go to the "Canvas: Size" inspector and uncheck "Auto-adjust canvas size."

I noticed just today that all the boxes I placed in my OGP documents were smaller than before and I had to resize them. Kinda stunk. Because of this, I am going to open one of my more complicated flows to make sure they are not all like this.

OGP5 is rescaling objects for me...

My situation is like dude's, I think. In OmniGraffle 4 Pro, my objects all fit onto a single-page (1x1) canvas except for one document (where "spare" or unused network resource objects were stored just to the right of the canvas for easy access but so they wouldn't print). When opened with OmniGraffle 5 Pro, these documents were all spread over 4 (2x2) canvases as if every object was larger than before (which is different than dude's situation where his objects were smaller than before).

Its not a HUGE problem, but it will be a fair bit of work to fix all of my drawings... :(
