Hi,

I would like to ask whether someone from the marketing people could
provide me with a nice product information page for Charts in the same
style as we have them already for Writer or Math or Calc available on
the OOo main page:

http://www.openoffice.org/product/writer.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/math.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/calc.html
etc.

Hmm, using these as an example is probably not a good idea. The layout is unattractive. The info not headlined and so on. Frankly these pages need serious looking at.
My intention is to get more attention to the chart with having it linked
from the main page. I also would like to place a link to that product
information on the chart 'project' page and vice versa:
http://graphics.openoffice.org/chart/chart.html

I'll have some time this weekend, I'll put something together.

Great :-). Thanks a lot!

Question: If you were going to try to excite someone about charts what would be the top five things that you would tell them about Charts.

Maybe something like this?:

1) You want to know what all your data is about? Use the chart to visualize it. Identify trends, reveal outliers and find dependencies.

2) You want to present your business data. Visualize it with the chart and your audience will get the point faster.

3) You can create charts from your Calc data or a Writer table or even with independent data for example in a Presentation or Draw.

4) You can choose from a variety of chart types: Bar charts, Pie Charts, Line Charts, XY Charts, Area Charts, Net Chart, Stock Charts, several are even available in 3D look.

5) The interactive GUI allows you to easily customize single parts of the chart. For example you can change the titles, axes, series, the background and so on. Or select an important data point and highlight it with a different color for example.

6) There are many options to customize your chart. For example you can choose various fillings from plain color to images, gradients or hatchings. Choose different fonts or number formats.


Cheers
Yo


Thanks a lot,
Ingrid
