- Charts in demonstration PipeDream 4
-
- This directory contains some sample charts and some simple tutorials
- showing you how to create your own charts. The file %H4%charts%H4% contains
- some general information; read this first. The directories Election,
- Inflation and Worldcup contain simple spreadsheets with live charts.
- The directories 1_3Dbars and 2_Penguins give instructions on making
- your own charts. Pictures contains some draw files which you can use
- in making your own charts. If you like, you can also use your own draw
- files.
-
- Remember that the demonstration version cannot save charts and so the
- charts that appear in the documents will not be updated dynamically as
- they would be if loaded into the real PipeDream. You can, however, see
- the charts live by bringing up the PipeDream menu and selecting Edit
- Chart from the Charts menu. This will put the chart into an edit
- window. When you change the values in the spreadsheet the chart will
- redraw in the editing window. You can also change the format of the
- chart in the editing window.
-
- You may find that when investigating charts it is best to use a wide
- screen mode. If you have an A5000 computer and a multi-sync monitor
- try mode 39. If you have an earlier computer try mode 16. To change
- the screen mode, bring up the menu on the coloured palette icon at the
- bottom-left of the window, slide across the mode arrow and type the
- number in at the bottom of the menu.
-
- Finally, fonts. The charts in this directory use Trinity and Homerton
- outline fonts. If you have these fonts available, all well and good.
- If you do not have outline fonts the charts will be displayed with
- system font. System font is rather ugly when used in graphics. If you
- have this, please remember that charts are much prettier when using
- outline fonts.
