Data Map: Data Map Object Size Changes After Inserting in Document (135095)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Office for Windows 95
- Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95
- Microsoft Word for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q135095 SYMPTOMS
When you insert a Microsoft Data Map object in your document, the map
object may increase or decrease in size when you activate the document
(click in the document to remove the focus from the object).
CAUSE
This behavior occurs when you insert or activate a Microsoft Data Map
object in your document while you view your document with a zoom setting
other than 100 percent. For example, if you are viewing your Microsoft Word
document or Microsoft PowerPoint slide with a zoom setting of 50 percent,
and you insert a map object, when you click on the document to deactivate
the map object, the map object decreases in size to about half the original
size. If you insert a map object in a document with a zoom setting of 200
percent, when you click the document to deactivate the map object, the map
object increases in size to about twice the original size.
Note that this behavior does not occur when you insert a map object on a
Microsoft Excel worksheet.
WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, use any of the following methods:
Method 1: Change the zoom factor in your document to 100% before you insert
the map object. You can then change the zoom factor back to the
desired setting without affecting the relative size of the map
object; that is, the map object will scale appropriately with the
zoom setting.
Method 2: Adjust the size of the map in your document by dragging the
sizing handles for the map object.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
