Hello LyX,
I'm a somewhat new convert to LyX, am thoroughly impressed with what it has
to offer, but am having an issue at the moment.
I would like to insert a flowchart which I have created in Dia. From Dia I
am able to export the flowchart as a .tex file and input it into my LyX
document (input child document within a float figure). I chose .tex file as
I prefer to have the LaTeX font used everywhere in both my diagram and text.
When I rendered the document for the first time I noticed that the diagram
was massive. Therefore I wanted to rescale it. Using a TeX command line I
inserted the following:
\centering
{\scalefont{0.5}
Input: Schematicdrawing.tex
}
This works great for decreasing the font size, however the rest of my
flowchart (boxes, arrows, .) are still large. Is there a way to scale these
as well in LyX?
I then thought to rescale everything in Dia (50%). Unfortunately when I
input the .tex into LyX, only the boxes, arrows, lines,. have been rescaled,
the font size remains the same. At this point I thought it would be possible
to use the \scalefont{0.5} function in LyX to get the diagram looking as it
should. Unfortunately the text seems to have shifted slightly to the right.
Can you provide any advice on how to rescale .tex files within LyX?
Thanks so much,
Eve
