Scalable display of the "static chart" embedding of Content Trees

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

Short Summary: Scale of Content Trees "Static Chart" is not adjustable. Using it as an quick overview embedded into an article becomes quite useless while GM'ing, if the chart has almost full monitor size for just a few boxes.   TLDR: I was trying to create a quick overview of my quest structure for my GM'ing by using a content tree. This works out just perfect in theory, wouldn't there be the problem of embedding it into my quest article:   When embedding content trees into articles I have three options: 1. Embed interactive Chart (unsuited for me, because I want to display textual information, such us "NPC died". But the Chart shows giant boxes with tiny text). 2. Embed Textual List (Just text. Not helpful at all for a quick one-glance overview) 3. Embed Static Chart (perfect in theory BUT)   So the static chart is the obvious choice for my purpose and could perfectly fullfill my needs if there wasn't this unchangable zoom level. The boxes are enormous, filling most of what my 24'' monitor can display in view mode for only a few boxes. Font size suitable for a half-blind-grandmother to read from the next room.   Suggestion I wish to have a basic option to scale a static chart of a content tree from 1 to 100%.

How does this feature request address the current situation?

  For me a feature is only useful if I can embed it into articlesd properly. So it will change content trees from "mostly useless" to "just perfect" for me personally.

What are other uses for this feature request?

Content Trees are very versatile and I think I might not be the only one who is interested in using them as a quick embedded overview or a simple substitute for a flow chart.

The Team's Response

This is a really good idea but it will need abit more support to evaluate it - I honestly think it's a matter of typing this request a bit clearer next time - I was really surprised how small was the amount of people that interacted with this.

    The alternative would be to add options to the interactive chart version to make it text only.   That is already possible with CSS if you want to have a fix now (or this doesn't get accepted)
