Description:
I wanted to change the size of a diagram and opened therefore Model -> Diagram Properties and Size.. .

Initial value of width and height is 1. When you increase the value for width or height or both you can not decrease it back to a value smaller than 2 although the textareas display a 1. In contrast the preview of the diagram size shows correctly what will happen if button OK is pressed.

How to repeat:
In the same way.

Suggested fix:
Press cancel.

Many thanks for writing a bug report.

What do you mean with not able to decrease it?

Where do you see that it is not decrease?

I wasn't able to repeat this but maybe I just misunderstood you.

I am experiencing this problem with OS X 10.6.2 and WB 5.2.16.

I'm working with an existing Model that contains an ER Diagram and am attemping to adjust the "Diagram Properties and Size".  This dialog box can be accessed either by clicking on the Info Properties panel and then click on "Change" or clicking the "Model" option in the Menu Bar and selecting "Diagram properties and size"

One of the diagrams I am currently working with is currently set to a size of 4 x 3.  If I try to change it to 5 x 3, it won't change to the new size.  If I try to change it to 6 x 4, for some reason it works.  If I try to change it back to 4 x 3. it doesn't work.

Also, I noticed that I experienced different behaviors to what I mentioned above when I access the "Diagram properties and size" dialog box from the Info Panel compared to accessing from the Menu Bar.  But in all cases it did not function properly on my OS X 10.6.2 machine.

In regards to my previous comment:

I just noticed that when I create a new model with a new diagram that the "Diagram Properties and Size" feature works properly when accessed via the "Info" panel.

But the document that I was working with was generated by reverse engineering a database and for that particular file it does not work as it should.
