Jens Schmidt Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 When changing the DPI in Document Setup it scales all my objects to achieve the new DPI rather simply just changing the DPI which is the expected behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 I don't see that behavior in 1.8.4.693. What release are you running? If I only change the DPI the object sizes and locations remain as they were.

You probably want to do it with this setting enabled - rescale. Helps? Quote "The user interface is supposed to work for me - I am not supposed to work for the user interface."

Staff Sean P Posted August 7, 2020 Staff Share Posted August 7, 2020 Hi Jens Schmidt, It looks like the software could be using the last option that was previously set under 'Objects will:' Do you currently only have one artboard? If so delete the artboard, go to Document Setup and switch to Objects will Rescale and click OK. Then re-insert the artboard using the Artboard Tool (set to Insert to document size) and then change the DPI - you should find that the objects will rescale to maintain the correct sizes. I'll get this passed over to development. Jens Schmidt and Jowday 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you all guys Yes Sean, It's one artboard and your solution worked perfectly, thank's a bunch I am a bit confused though, why is the granularity setting connected to the size of my art? To me, Rescale is only relevant to Dimensions: and iff it would be shoehorned in with DPI it should do the very opposite of what it does now. Thank's again Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
