Changing Shape Sets
As standard, you have several sets of shapes which correspond to:
• versions earlier than 5.2
• version 5.2 and later versions (except version 2005)
• version 2005
• version 2009
To modify the shapes version used in a diagram:
1. In a diagram, select Diagram > Properties.

In
MEGA Web Front-End, in the diagram pop-up menu, select
Properties.
2. In the Characteristics tab of the diagram properties, select a value in the Shapes Version field.
• "Before MEGA 5.2"
• "After MEGA 5.2"
• "After MEGA 2005"
• "After MEGA 2009"
3. Open the diagram.
4. Click Drawing > Initialize Shapes (MEGA Windows Front-End).
The appropriate shapes are then loaded.
If you are using a version of MEGA later than 5.2:
• New diagrams will use the new shapes by default.

If you want to use the old shapes, you must select the value "Before MEGA 5.2" or "After MEGA 5.2" in the
Shapes Version list box.
• For compatibility, old diagrams always use the old shapes.

If you want to use the more recent shapes, you must select the value "After MEGA 2005" in the
Shapes Version list box.
