Modifying Environmental Attributes

You can modify other features of the ISHIKAWA environment such as zooming, mouse sensitivity, and shadow attributes by selecting View Ishikawa Settings Other... to open the following dialog:

Figure 8.75 Others Dialog

Zoom Window controls whether the zoom operation opens a new window or draws in the current window. Select Currentto reduce the amount of window management required.

The Shadow Type button controls the type of shadow that is drawn around the trunk and branch boxes.

• Bevel 1 draws a beveled edge box with a lower-right light source.

• Bevel 2 draws a beveled edge box with an upper-left light source.

• Drop draws a box with a drop shadow. This is the default.

• None suppresses the shadow.

The Shadow Width slider controls the shadow width if the boxes have shadows or the outline width when boxes are displayed without shadows. Move the slider to the right to increase the shadow width and to the left to decrease the width.

The Add Sensitivity slider controls how closely you must position the cursor to an existing arrow before a mouse click results in an add arrow operation. Move the slider to the right to increase the size of the context-sensitive area and to the left to reduce the size of the context-sensitive area.

The Select Sensitivity slider controls how closely you must position the cursor to an existing arrow before a mouse click results in an edit, delete, move, or popup arrow operation. Operate this slider in the same manner as the Add Sensitivity slider.
