Table chart pane

The Table chart pane shows a seating chart, ordered by table. This can be very useful for displaying at the entrance to an event. Tables with no guests assigned are omitted. It is not possible to change the plan from this pane.

You can change the number of Columns in the chart and the format for displaying the Guest name. You can also control the font and colours by clicking on the button.

You can optionally show the Seat numbers, Notes, Meal choices and Special requirements- these can be very useful for caterers.

The order of the tables can be changed by clicking on Table order button. Alternatively, you can change the order in the Schematic pane. Tables are laid out left to right and then top to bottom.

You can copy the contents of the whole pane to the clipboard as plain text and HTML using Edit|Copy. Use right click and Copy to copy selected text to the clipboard.

When you are happy with the layout you can print this page with File| Print.

You can export the pane as an Excel CSV, plain text or HTML file using File| Export| Table chart. Select Excel CSV file, Text file or HTML file from the Save as type drop-down in the Export window. Plain text may be useful for emailing to your stationary supplier. HTML preserves the layout and is useful for web pages and other HTML-aware applications, such as Microsoft Word. CSV files can be opened as Excel spreadsheets.

Hint Use Ctrl+A/ +A to select everything in this pane.
