DropOnPageScale Cell (Miscellaneous Section)

  • Article

Contains the percentage by which a shape is scaled when dropped on the drawing page.

Remarks

In the following two cases, Visio scales shapes so that they appear appropriately on the drawing page:

  • When unmeasured shapes are dropped onto scaled drawings.

  • When measured shapes are dropped onto unscaled drawings.

The percentage in the DropOnPageScale cell indicates the factor by which Visio scaled the shape, either up (>100) or down (<100). You can use this number as a factor when calculating hard-coded values.

This value is 100% for measured shapes on scaled drawings or unmeasured shapes on unscaled drawings.
