Is there anything online or otherwise that can help me make a flowchart?
I need to make several today.
I did a google search and found a few things but I figure I would come to yall before i try anything out.

It has both a browser based and desktop based java client. I use it regularly and it's tough to find something simpler to use.

I use this shit daily

3/11/2011 11:48:28 AM

^that's awesome too. Definitely have to give it a try.

What are the viewing options for non-firefox users?

3/11/2011 12:00:20 PM

I use MS Paint myself

3/11/2011 12:01:48 PM

^^there's a stand-alone app that you can use, that will export to PNG or PDF. That's actually what I use, because fuck Firefox.

3/11/2011 12:04:52 PM

i lol'd inside when i saw the question asking how much Visio costs.

Google might have some free type of flowchart maker by now.

3/11/2011 12:05:55 PM

^ Google Apps has one that we use, forget the name of it though

3/11/2011 12:10:32 PM

^^i had no clue!

3/11/2011 12:11:53 PM

Word art.

I've made some pretty bangin charts with word, the shape and text tools are might finer than they useta be

but if you're lookin for some ultra-fancy shenanigans then i dont know.

3/11/2011 12:31:19 PM

3/11/2011 12:34:46 PM

^lol.

^^im not looking for ANYTHING fancy, as a matter of fact its only for my use, but i need to make like 15 or so by monday so even though paint is easy sometimes i get the dimensions off and what not, and i dont feel like worrying about that crap.
i just need something that i can plug some boxes and arrows to and then type in them, but be able to move them if i need more room.


i just made one though




14 more to go!

all medical flow charts need an "OH S@#*& GET TO THE HOSPITAL"

3/11/2011 12:52:47 PM

hahahaha

3/11/2011 12:53:42 PM

id hate to get Rhinorea while taking a test

3/11/2011 12:55:26 PM

or call a WAMBULANCE with picture

3/11/2011 12:55:33 PM

Powerpoint works really well for this, squares and shapes have automatic formatting so that they can be typed into so you don't run into stuff like words going over the borders.

3/11/2011 12:57:52 PM

^ill try it out.

the words running over the borders dowsnt bother me, like i said im the only one wholl be seeing this

3/11/2011 12:58:44 PM

well it bothers the fuck outta me

fix it please

3/11/2011 1:03:57 PM

lol. i will

(actually im not and just telling you that )

3/11/2011 1:04:28 PM

okay boo

3/11/2011 1:06:10 PM

Word actually has a function specifically for making flowcharts.

3/11/2011 5:07:35 PM

is there any specialized software that you guys use for creating family tree?

3/13/2011 2:35:51 PM

There's like 5 options in this thread already. Just use pictures as elements.
