Options Branch Labels


Only visible if old-style branch labels are enabled.
Automatically label branch (decision) symbols
  Check this box to have the program automatically add single-character labels to corners of decision symbols.  Decision symbols are shaped like diamonds or rounded diamonds and represent conditional branches in your chart. For example, you may want the right side to be labeled 'y' for Yes and the bottom to be labeled 'n' for No, or 'T' and 'F' for True and False etc.

  NOTE: The program knows which styles are decisions based only on the style name.  If the name begins with the text "Decision", it is assumed to be a decision style.  New decision figures are auto-labeled only if you have the above option checked AND the style does not have any previously defined default text.

Default labels

  You can edit the text in each of the four corners of the symbol to indicate the default way that you'd like decision symbols to be labeled. Each corner can contain only a single character.  These are only the default labels for newly created decision symbols - once you create the symbol, you can always edit them like any other text.
