Sunburst map font size way too small

Votes:

0

We changed the setup on our PRTG host , we have the display spanned over 2 vertical stacked 17"monitors each displaying half of the sunburst.

Now the circle map is very big , but the text in circle map is almost unreadable small , even if you are standing in fromt of the monitors.

It seems that the autofont size calculation doesn't copy with a map of 2000x2000 pixels ... I have a screendump if you need to see it for youself.

I have names only taking up 5-10% of the whole field they are positioned in.

Hey eviled,

Please open the file C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\webroot\javascript\_Prtg.ObjectTree.Sunburst.Plugin.js in a text-editor (e.g. notepad++), search for the entries (2 times in the file) return d.sunburst.fontsize + "px" and change this entries to return "20px"

Once you have done this, please reload your map by pressing CTRL + F5.

Kindly note, this change will affect all sunburst objects in your maps and in your web GUI as well.

Best regards,
Sven

Hi Sven

The first article you referred to , i had found on my own and already posted a question there. My knowledge of Java is not good enough to interpret the source completely.

So i have been experimenting with some of the things i assumed that were used to determine the font size. But so far no luck at all.

The second link does not really help me in case of the sunburst map...

i did a day research on the subject before posting here, i am looking for a specific fix for my problem since i cannot find the specific solution here, on spiceworks or anywhere else :(

And you Sven , you are my hero of the day sir :)

I finally set the fontsize to 24px , that suits my needs perfectly (had to shorten 4-5 names , the rest is now properly sized.| thanks for the detailed info :)

For other people looking into this :

this only works for a ridiculous sized map on a very large screen, on a normal sized display the text will be way to big to fit in the circle map...
