Exchanging files with other software
You can transfer diagram drawings from one function to another by using Cut, Copy and Paste.
Exporting drawings
To export diagram drawings:
*In the Shapes Editor menu bar, select File > Save As.
Importing drawings
You can import drawings from applications operating under Windows, such as Paint or Photoshop.
Customized shapes should be saved in .mgs format (HOPEX proprietary format). The shape can then be loaded.
After import, you can only enlarge or reduce the diagram size. Distortion may occur when modifying the size of a diagram dot-for-dot (bitmap).
*To modify certain non-vectorial elements contained in .MGS (proprietary format) shapes, it may be necessary to cut and paste to the graphic editor in which they were produced.
