The product
-----------
TreeDraw is a specialist graphics editor for creating high quality
genealogical drop-line charts.
Descendant and ancestral trees may be imported direct from Kith and Kin tree
files or from PAF GEDCOM files created by other genealogy programs. TreeDraw
converts these trees into easily edited picture elements which can then be
re-formatted and re-arranged before storing and printing.
It is now easy to produce perfectly laid out charts and incorporate pictures
diagrams and other simple graphics. The charts may be as complex or as
simple as you wish.
By importing a combination of descendant and ancestral trees from one or
more tree files, it is possible to build complex charts which can extend in
any direction.
TreeDraw maintains a link between each chart text element and the source
field in the original tree file. This means that you can update each text
element automatically to mirror any changes in the original file. The tree
link for each text element can also be modified manually. This is a powerful
feature which gives you control over the content and format of the text in
the chart.
Additional text elements may be entered manually to provide titles,
headings, comments, etc.
As well as text, you can place into the chart simple graphics (lines, boxes,
circles) and OLE objects like pictures, clip-art, diagrams, etc.
TreeDraw lets you control the size, shape, style, colour and alignment of
all chart elements and supports colour printing.
