Managing and sharing graphics

Quattro Pro lets you delete a shape or line on a spreadsheet. You can also delete a graphic in a floating graphics window or delete the whole floating graphics window.

Quattro Pro lets you export a floating graphics window to file. You can import a copy of a graphic created in other applications into a spreadsheet or a floating graphics window. You can also add an Internet graphic to a spreadsheet.

You can paste an image into Microsoft Paint to save it as a separate object. Any annotations added to a chart or map remain with the chart or map when exported.

Before you can import or export a graphic, check to see whether the graphic format is one of the types compatible with this version of Quattro Pro. For more information about compatible graphic formats, see “Graphic formats for importing” and “Graphic formats for exporting.”
