Given <code>Graphics</code> object, how do I determine the range of coordinates needed to include all of graphics? Basically I need something like what <code>Show</code> does by default, but I want to specify <code>PlotRange</code>,<code>PlotRangePadding</code> and <code>ImagePadding</code> explicitly. Example, two <code>Show</code>s below should render the same <pre><code>g = Graphics[{Thickness[1], CapForm["Round"], Line[{{0, 0}, {1, 1}}]}]; Show[g] Show[g, PlotRange -> getPlotRange[g], PlotRangePadding->getPlotRangePadding[g], ImagePadding->getImagePadding[g]] </code></pre> Motivation: fixing diagrams in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4230823/consistent-size-for-graphplots">this</a> question Update: <code>AbsoluteOptions</code> gives me <code>PlotRange</code> but not the other two options. Explicitly specifying <code>ImagePadding->Automatic</code> changes appearance though it's supposedly <code>Automatic</code> by default. Two images below show differently and I don't understand why <pre><code>g = Graphics[{Thickness[1], CapForm["Round"], Line[{{0, 0}, {1, 1}}]}]; Show[g] Show[g, Sequence @@ AbsoluteOptions[Show[g]]] </code></pre> Update 2: A similar problem was <a href="http://forums.wolfram.com/mathgroup/archive/2009/Nov/msg00144.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">brought up</a> a year ago, with no solutions proposed, and not fixed as of Mathematica 8.0. To summarize <ol> <li>There's no way to reproduce <code>Show[g]</code> above with explicit setting of <code>PlotRange</code></li> <li>There's no way to get absolute <code>ImagePadding</code> used by <code>Show[g]</code></li> <li><code>Show[g,PlotRange->Automatic]</code> looks different from <code>Show[g]</code></li> <li><code>AbsoluteOptions</code> can give the <a href="http://forums.wolfram.com/mathgroup/archive/2009/Nov/msg00144.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">wrong result</a> for <code>PlotRange</code></li> </ol>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
