Bar Style Problems

[Andy]

I have two questions

1. Has anyone found a way to quickly/easily copy bar styles from one project file to another

2. My bar style symbols have shrunk. We are using the "dog house" symbol, but on the file I'm working on, for some reason the symbols have shrunk to about 1/4 size. Zooming the view has no effect.
I opened an older file that had the correct symbols, but when I copied over the views, they shrunk again. I'll be debugging to try and determine the view that corrupted them but was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem

Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,

Bar Styles are part of the View
To copy them, open both files, Tools, Organizer, Views, select the view and
the two files, Copy.
No, I've never seen my symbols shrink, sorry.

Hello Andy and Jan,

For the symbol shrinking, have you tried the Format / Layout... / Bar height
feature ?

Hope this helps,
