"Is there any way of changing the size of the LayerViewPanel to a specific size programmatically. This would be useful to re-paint the panel off screen at a required scale, without scaling the styles (fonts, line widths etc)? Currently I am limited to scaling the graphics within the printing modules, thus scaling everything." The LayerViewPanel extends the JPanel class, which extends JComponent. I think you should be able to resize the LayerViewPanel using the reshape()method that is inherited from JComponent. You wrote: "I also have problems with feature labels being rotated incorrectly, and sometimes printed as though mirrored. The screen display is OK, it only happens when my printer module causes a repaint by the RenderingManager. This also happens when landscape page format is chosen. Seems to happen when the rotation angle is clockwise." I have no idea what might be causing this. It seems very wierd that you don't have problems on the screen, but when you try to render for printing. But I'm not at all familiar with the way JUMP creates its labels. You might start by looking at the LabelStyle class. I think you will find the code that actually draws the labels in the paint() method of this class. Let me know what you find. If something in the method needs to be fixed I can help you get a patch submitted to the CVS. You wrote: "I also note some problems with setting attributes using the Change Styles dialog - it appears that when you set one parameter, another one is unset!!!! Has anyone seen this behaviour??" Do you notice this problem when you are on a specific tab or panel of the change styles dialog? Can you give me a litte more detail?
