How to customize ViVA picture export?

StephanWeber

Hi,

with .cdsinit and these lines I managed to change the fonts for ViVA plots:

envSetVal("viva.graph" "titleFont" 'string "Open Sans,12,-1,5,75,0,0,0,0,0")
envSetVal("viva.axis" "font" 'string "Open Sans,12,-1,5,75,0,0,0,0,0")

However, can I also customize the bitmap export function, like the not exporting the legend, and for having a certain number of pixels for width and height??

We want a common style across the team for result plots.

Bye Stephan

    Stephan,

    I'm not aware of a way of changing the defaults for this. The setting is saved as a preference automatically based on what you did previously (under the ~/.config directory), but this is not documented behaviour and anyway changing the file saved there is going to get overwritten any time somebody changes a setting in ViVA.

    You should contact customer support as I think this needs an enhancement request.

    Many thanks, Andrew. I found this virtuoso.conf file and the corresponding settings. Having this is not so bad. No real for customization features.
