WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is experiencing a problem with a scanned graphic file being imported into WP 5.1 in either MSP or WPG format. If the graphic file is loaded into a Figure box at the default size, everything works correctly. If the graphic image is resized from the "Definition: Figure" menu (directly after loading the graphic), the figure can no longer be viewed or printed using WP 5.1. Using WP 5.0 there is no problem. The scanned image was scanned horizontally (at 300 DPI), and rotated 90 degrees by the Handy Scanner 3000 software. Perhaps this causes some differences in the file which is incompatible with WP 5.1 re-sizing.

Also, in WP 5.0 if both width and height are changed with the "Re-size Both" option, the border assumes the new dimensions and the figure is changed to fill the frame. In WP 5.1 using "Re-size Both", the frame assumes the new dimensions but the figure expands without change in shape until it encounters the smaller of the two frame dimensions. I feel that there should be an option to use either the WP 5.1 or WP 5.0 form of scaling. The option could be provided immediately after the query for the new width and height. Solutions: This is an enhancement. Page 265 of the manual states "...because you are manually changing the dimensions, a graphics image may appear and print distorted." The options for sizing and scaling in graphics edit are autonomous to the height and width dimensions in the "Definition: Figure" screen (Alt-F9, #1, #1).
