-
-
- WORKING WITH EXISTING CHARTS
-
- *You may use charts created with a previous version
- of Org Plus simply by installing the new version of
- Org Plus and opening the older chart as usual.
-
- *Charts created or modified in Org Plus for Windows
- Version 3.0 can be opened in Versions 2.01 and 2.0,
- Org Plus Advanced 6.01, and Microsoft Organization
- Chart 1.0. These previous versions do not support all
- of the features of Org Plus for Windows 3.0, but they
- will convert the newer features to reasonable
- equivalents.
-
- *Org Plus for Windows 3.0 charts cannot be opened in
- Org Plus for Windows 1.0, Org Plus Advanced 6.0 or
- earlier, or Org Plus for Macintosh 1.0.
-
- *Org Plus for Windows 3.0 will read Org Plus Advanced
- 6.01 Amounts fields and translate them into Org Plus
- 3.0 Amounts fields. There are some restrictions;
- please refer to the Org Plus for Windows 3.0 manual
- for details.
-
-
- COLOR MONITORS
-
- Org Plus for Windows 3.0 gives you the option of
- selecting from over 70 colors. If you are using a 16-
- color display, some of those colors cannot be
- displayed on your monitor. Org Plus will simulate
- those colors with patterns of displayable colors when
- it draws the interiors of boxes or the chart
- background, and will pick the nearest displayable
- color for drawing lines and text. Displays which
- support 256 or more colors will always correctly show
- the selected color.
-
- Regardless of the capabilities of your display, the
- selected color will be displayed correctly if
- displayed on another system with 256 or more colors,
- and will be printed correctly if your printer is
- capable of printing that color.
-
-
- CHART COLORS IN OTHER APPLICATIONS
-
- Org Plus for Windows 3.0 chart colors may appear
- different when the chart is embedded or linked through
- OLE into a client application that only supports a 16-
- color palette. Most current presentation graphics
- programs can display the full set of Org Plus colors,
- but many word processors cannot.
-
-
- SHADOW OFFSETS
-
- Org Plus gives you the ability to set the amount of
- shadow offset you want to give your lines, text, or
- boxes. It is recommended that you set your offset to 4
- points or less for the best chart appearance and
- program performance.
-
-
- PRINTING WITH HEWLETT PACKARD LASERJET 4 PRINTERS
-
- If you are printing your charts with an HP LaserJet 4
- printer, we recommend that you use a PostScript
- printer driver. If you do need to use a non-PostScript
- HP LaserJet 4 printer driver, we recommend that you
- use the Raster Graphics Mode instead of HP-GL/2
- Graphics Mode. You can change the printer driver mode
- without exiting Org Plus. From the File menu, select
- Print Setup; Org Plus displays the Print Setup dialog
- box. Click the Options button to bring up the Options
- dialog box and select Raster from the Graphics Mode
- pull-down menu.
-
-
- PRINTING WITH HEWLETT PACKARD LASERJET III PRINTERS
-
- Certain PCL drivers for the HP LaserJet III series
- have a problem printing white boxes. We recommend that
- you either use a PostScript driver or make your boxes
- transparent instead of white. You can set your boxes to
- transparent by selecting them and then choosing Color
- from the Boxes menu. The lower right cell on the color
- grid makes the selected boxes transparent.
-
-
- ORG PLUS AND MICROSOFT ORGANIZATION CHART
-
- Org Plus for Windows 3.0 installs itself as the OLE
- server for PowerPoint 4.0 organization charts. If you
- have PowerPoint 4.0 installed, you will find that the
- organization chart button on its toolbar and the org
- chart "new slide" template will now run Org Plus
- instead of Microsoft Organization Chart. Also, when
- you edit existing org charts in PowerPoint slides, you
- will be using Org Plus, not Microsoft Organization
- Chart. Org Plus 3.0 is completely compatible with
- Microsoft Organization Chart 1.0.
-
-
- NETWORK FILE SHARING
-
- Org Plus for Windows 3.0 will allow simultaneous
- access to a chart file. The first to open it has full
- write access; while it is open, others can open it
- read-only. In order for network sharing to work, SHARE
- must be installed on the systems involved. See your
- Windows documentation for details.
-
-
- INSTALLING WHEN WINDOWS IS RUN FROM A NETWORK
-
- If you are running Windows from a network and the
- Windows System directory is on the net and is write-
- protected, the Install will be unable to install the
- file CTRL3DV2.DLL there. Before you are able to run
- Org Plus, you will need to get your system
- administrator to manually install this file.
