I am using the flowchart module to create various goodies. What I don't know how to do is regulate the size of the font for the text that goes inside the little boxes. Any suggestions? I do not known any other way but put the size/style together with text:
\startFLOWcell \name{Obs} \location{1,1} \shape{action} \text{{\switchtobodyfont[16pt]\bf Text in cell}} \stopFLOWcell
If you want to be consistent over several cells, define a macro. vit in m-chart you will find:
\setupFLOWcharts [\c!option=, \c!bodyfont=, \c!dot=, % private option \c!width=12\bodyfontsize, \c!height=7\bodyfontsize, \c!maxwidth=, \c!maxheight=, \c!offset=\v!standard, % == auto offset \c!dx=2\bodyfontsize, \c!dy=2\bodyfontsize, \c!nx=0, % 1, \c!ny=0, % 1, \c!x=1, \c!y=1, \c!autofocus=, \c!focus=, \c!background=, % \v!color, \c!backgroundcolor=\s!white, \c!rulethickness=\linewidth, \c!frame=\v!off, \c!framecolor=]
\setupFLOWlines [\c!corner=\v!round, \c!arrow=\v!yes, \c!dash=\v!no, \c!radius=.375\bodyfontsize, % 2.5\c!rulethickness \c!color=FLOWlinecolor, \c!rulethickness=.15\bodyfontsize, % 2pt, \c!offset=\v!none]
\setupFLOWshapes [\c!default=action, \c!framecolor=FLOWframecolor, \c!background=\v!color, \c!backgroundcolor=FLOWbackgroundcolor, \c!backgroundscreen=\@@rsscreen, \c!rulethickness=.15\bodyfontsize, % 2pt, \c!offset=.5\bodyfontsize]
\setupFLOWfocus [\c!framecolor=FLOWfocuscolor, \c!background=\@@FLOSbackground, \c!backgroundcolor=\@@FLOSbackgroundcolor, \c!backgroundscreen=\@@FLOSbackgroundscreen, \c!rulethickness=\@@FLOSrulethickness, \c!offset=\@@FLOSoffset]
\definecolor [FLOWfocuscolor] [s=.2] \definecolor [FLOWlinecolor] [s=.5] \definecolor [FLOWframecolor] [s=.7] \definecolor [FLOWbackgroundcolor] [s=.9]
so guess ... what variable can be used to set the bodyfont

Revisiting this question after an absence I tried redefining various values from the above list within \setupFLOWcharts. None worked. No doubt there is a magic combination I missed. But more than one user has been perplexed by this.
You know I never did figure out the answer to this one. And factors such as \tfd were still too small. So I used the
John, I guess you have maxwidth=\textwidth and your natural chart is wider then \textwidth, is't it? What happens if you put away maxwidth? Vit
TeX primitive: \font\cx=bchr8r at 10pt external to any other macro and for each text string in the chart definition I used the \cx prefix. This was simple, controllable, and did not interact with anything else. And the font came out at the expected size.
A better (more Contextish) solution is still requested.
