What is the effect of scaling strategies?

You can specify how the text within the inner square will behave in ARIS if the size of the object changes. If you specify for a model that the text attributes in the symbol are to have multiple lines, the room for text will be utilized completely, with the following strategies as the base:

Linear (standard)

The text utilizes the entire text area in the symbol.

Same distance to the corners

Retains the same absolute distance between the corners of the inner text field and the corners of the object.

Same angle to the corners

Retains the same angle between the corners of the inner text field and the corners of the object.

Usually, the linear strategy is the most suitable. The other two strategies can be useful if you want to use non-linear polygons as object symbols. A linear utilization of the text area can then be suboptimal.
