Publish as Web Page

Web Page Output Format

Description

HTML

The basic HTML files can be viewed in any web browser that supports images, client-side image maps, and tables.

If the entire diagram does not display in the browser at one time, and you want this to happen, then in iGrafx on the File menu, choose Page Setup, set page scaling to fit to 1 page, and then republish.

Java Applet

A Java applet is interactive, allowing zooms and pans, displays shape notes as rich formatted ToolTips, finds text within a diagram, and prints full page. The Java applet that displays diagrams has a toolbar on the top of the window, with ToolTips to indicate the function of the buttons.

SVG

Scalable Vector Graphics is a XML-based publishing format.

Publish as Web Project

An iGrafx web project is based on a collection of iGrafx files stored in a specified source folder. iGrafx publishes the selected files to a publishing folder specified during project creation.

A web project has several benefits over one-shot web page publishing, such as:

Benefits

Intelligent re-publishing

Files are published only if:

  • They have changed since the last time published.

  • A linked file has been removed since the last time published.

  • iGrafx previously generated a warning during publishing.

  • Files in the project have been changed or deleted outside of iGrafx.

Preserved linking

File links are restored if components change in a linked document.

Tree view navigation

  • Synchronized navigation of links.

  • Links appear in tree.

Managed files

  • Warnings are generated for problem diagrams or components.

  • Publishing folder directory structure mirrors source folder.

  • Protection against accidentally using reserved filenames.
