Graphics
Images are the third part of the communications process, and Applixware
Graphics is the application in Applixware Office for manipulating
images. It is oriented more towards office use than a conventional
paint or image manipulation program. As well as a moderate selection
of paint tools - brushes, and various drawing implements - it provides
tools for manipulating objects, or groups of objects. It also presents
the user with a page, similar to a word processing program, and
provides page layout features similar to those found in simple desk
top publishing programs. These are all useful in an office
environment. I find the actual painting tools a little bit clumsy to
use, but Applixware Graphics is still a very useful tool for an office
suite.
