Product Announcement (Continued)
Tucson AZ Patton & Patton Software
Corporation, maker of flowcharting software since
1982, is now shipping Flow Charting 6.
We have a
long standing tradition for ease of use in our
Flow Charting programs, and Flow Charting 6 extends
this tradition with features that
takes the chore part out of flowcharting and turns
it into a more charts per hour feature. This
translates into time saved and dollars earned. A
single flowchart of a process thirty minutes to
construct, edit and print can save $30,000 in one
month from the elimination of scrap and rework. The
conversion of a faulty process into an efficient
process can eliminate the frustrations of employees
and can help reduce employee turn-over and thereby
reduce the cost of training new-hires.
Our focus has always
been on flowcharting, not general drawing utilities,
and this release points right at people who actually
draw flowcharts. It makes their work easier and
respects the complexities of their jobs
whether it be running a corporation, production
line, following the money trail in a legal battle or
Auditing corporations and processes.
Past user of Patton & Patton flowcharting products
will recognize that we have made the rather large
footprint of the Command Bar into a smaller and more
powerful tool (1/2 the size). New users will
appreciate the simple but powerful Command Bar
method for putting default shapes, lines, and text
fonts at their fingertips. This uniquely
designed feature allows the user to quickly change
styles with just one click.

creation, editing, and printing of charts even
easier than previous versions.
