Can anyone suggest a tutorial for drawing a flow chart in
FP 2002?
I am having trouble getting the lines and boxes to come
together neatly.

Regards,
Garth
 
Don't do it in FP.

Create the flow chart in Visio, or SmartDraw (excellent for this) then save it as an image, then import into FP.

Can I use several hyperlinks in one Visio or Smart Draw
image and can these be pointed at pages in FP?

Garth.

Just using the auto shapes in FP.
I asked Crash Gordon about multiple hyperlinks in an image.
Can you help too?

Hi Garth,

What tool is being used to design the Flow Chart. MS
Visio works fairly well with FP.
 
sure! once you have the image (flow chart) into the web design just make hotspots for each shape and point them to whatever page you like.

btw, SmartDraw is awesome it's more than just a flow-charter...easy to use. The free trial should get you by...but it's definitely worth buying.

The flow chart will be altered several times.
Can the hyperlinks be made to move with the chart symbols
rather than a location on the FP page?

sure! once you have the image (flow chart) into the web
design just make hotspots for each shape and point them to
whatever page you like.
 
I don't think so. You may need to approach this in another way if the chart is going to keep changing. Hard to tell without seeing it. Maybe you can do it with tables and included content/pages?

Auto shapes are VML and only work in IE
- plus they are absolutely positioned and "fall apart" at varying resolutions
You will need to use a proper program (like Visio) for your charts

Hello CG.

Thank you for your comments & suggestions.
SmartDraw is interesting, esp the organisation and flow
charts.
I shall give it a try.

Garth.

Its a powerful little program, I use it for flowcharting a website for customer and doing floorplans for homes and lotsa other stuff.

Good luck1
