Change Detail Picture Size

I needed to create a new detail so I used another existing detail as my starting point. I want to modify the picture height of my new detail but whatever height I choose is not retained after I save, close, and reopen. I am attempting to change the height through the Edit Picture dialogue and the Window Height property.

What do I need to do to modify the height of a detail picture? Are there only certain heights that I can use? If so, what are they?

    You need to be setting the DocumentHeight and DocumentWidth properties which can be seen when you open the picture, right click with nothing selected and select "Property Window..."

    Regards.

    Thanks Matt. So what is the Window Height for in in the Edit Picture dialogue? Is that strictly for when opening it up in DeltaV Operate (Configure)?

    In reply to JoshC:

    I believe that is just the size of the window when open in edit mode. I never mess with the numbers other than doc height and width as I have seem people change the numbers around, get the picture all distorted and have to start over. Maybe not those particular ones but the viewport values for sure I have seen really corrupt a display.

    Is there any way to know what the relation of the document height/width is to pixels on the screen?

    In reply to dave_marshall:

    There is a way to calculate pixels but this changes based on the document height and width as well as what resolution is being used.

    It's not easy...
