Text inserted on a previous chart and saved may be used on this chart. All text will be placed in exactly the same places as they were on the saved chart. You can edit this text in the normal way. A file dialog box will be displayed for you to select the required saved file. Note that symbols are treated the same as text for this purpose.

Immediately after the text is added, before any further action is taken, the text added may be removed. A new menu item is added to the 'Text' menu item, 'Undo Loaded Text'.

Example of grid:

Refresh

As you move text and pictures around you may see some 'debris' (a ghosting trail) left behind. Simply click the 'Refresh' menu item and these ghost trails will be removed.
