Hi,
I'm a novice yet. I just want to put framed long texts (paragraphs) with
arrows connecting these. I want to decorate these frames (background,
beaty border, etc.). Like entity-relationship diagrams but more beauty
and that I could put long text in each node.
Is this possible? Do I must use metafun?
Can you provide a simple example?
Thanks a lot,
Xan.
PS: Please, CCme.

Hi Xan,
Did you consider the use of the FLOWchart module? There is a nice
manual at the pragma-ade site (Charts).

Thanks,
But is there any possibility of having charts with titles, as in page
138 of Metafun manual (Zapf example)? And choose border form like in
page 242 of Metafun manual?
Really, I need the title. Putting section in chart is a temporal
solution but it's not the same...
Xavi.

Definitely out of the box there is no possibility to place titles.
But since the chart module has the option to use overlays in the
shapes, with tweaking the Metapost-graphic as on page 138 in the
Metafun manual you might get this in place.
Without studying the sources it might be difficult to use shapes as
those presented on page 242 of the Metafun manual.
