Better Charts & Graphs
SmartDraw 2008's most powerful new feature has been improved again. The new chart controls give you more flexibility to customize your charts and graphs.
Increase or decrease the granularity of your chart through the new "tick mark" controls. Or change where and how the legend is displayed.
ImageCharts have been improved too. Now you can tell SmartDraw exactly how many images you want repeated in each section of your chart. Or you can have each image represent a precise number of units. For example, in the chart below, each bag of money represents $10 million in sales.
Business SmartTemplates and Symbol Libraries
SmartDraw 2008.38 includes over a thousand new symbols and over a hundred new SmartTemplates to help you manage and run your business—including forms and worksheets for finance, inventory control, human resources, and more.
Mouse Less and Do More with Keyboard Shortcuts
The new 2008.38 release gives you the ability to work faster and more efficiently with Keytips—keyboard shortcuts for all menu items. Simply press the Alt key to reveal the Keytips for all ribbon and SmartPanel choices. Then, hit the key for the command or menu item you want.
With Keytips, you can access every SmartDraw menu and command without ever having to reach for your mouse. Perfect for when you're working on your laptop or simply want to get more done faster.
300+ New SmartTemplates for SmartDraw Legal
SmartDraw 2008.38 includes what users like you have been asking for most—more than 300 new SmartTemplates for crime scene investigation, medical examination, case planning, and more.
Plus we've added hundreds of new symbols for auto accident reconstruction and crime scenes and updated and improved the entire traffic symbol library—over a 368 new symbols in all.
These are just a few of the many improvements we've made to the new SmartDraw 2008.38.
