[rrd-users] Graph size changed between 1.2.28 and 1.4.5

[Victor Engmark]

Hi all,

I've recently taken over distribution of an RRDtool package for a Linux From Scratch distribution. After an upgrade from 1.2.28 to 1.4.5 the graphs are now smaller; they've gone from 615x241 to 600x229 pixels. It looks like this is related to the rendering of the vertical "icon"/watermark on the right side of the graph. I managed to get the *width* of the text down to the previous value by adding `--font WATERMARK:6:/path/to/DejaVuSansMono.ttf`, but now it's *taller* than before, and there's no bottom margin between it and the graph. In the previous version, the text was 6px tall, and now it's 8px (even with the --font setting above). The bottom margin has gone from 15px to 0px, making it hug the right side of the graph. The title text is also 2px taller, although neither the font nor the settings changed. Any idea what could have caused this?

I've tried to reduce the logo font size, but then the text width is too low, and I've tried `--graph-render-mode=mono` <http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/RRDtool13#GraphingwithCairoPango>.

Cheers,
Victor
