Q:
Can B-liner read B-liner 98 or
B-liner, Version 1.5 diagrams? A:
Yes. B-liner provides upwards compatibility, so any older
B-liner diagrams can be read and used by B-liner.
However, because of the extended features, B-liner
diagrams can not be read by older versions of B-liner.
In other words: if you open and save a diagram in B-liner, you can not ever open that diagram
in an older version of B-liner. Back to

Q: My
diagram is displaying on the screen strangely. It
appears messed up.
A: If you are
running Windows 95 or Windows 98, there is a limit to
the size of your diagram. This is a result of the
operation system limitations. Your diagram
cannot be larger than 4 feet X 9 feet. Try scaling
your diagram down, using a smaller font, or running
B-liner on Windows NT.
