The Notation Manual is used for the central definition of all visualization settings with the aim of an identical representation of all TRUECHART visualizations on the respective system. The Notation Manual can only be edited by users with the "Notation Manual" permission.
The settings dialog can be opened via the TRUECHART context menu TRUECHART > Overall > Notation Manual or via Cell Editor TRUECHART > Cell > Notation Manual.
There has since been improvements made to the Notation manual from TRUECHART version 2023.4.0 onwards. You can access the notation manual by Right clicking on your TRUECHART visual and selecting the Notation manual icon:
The look and feel of the old and new notation manual user interface will differ and some options have been removed to simplify the setup of objects. In this guide old user interface will be on the left and the new user interface on the right.

Caution
All settings have a direct effect on all apps of the system after saving. Changes should therefore be made very carefully!
Local vs central version
There is the possibility to save and load changes to the Notation Manual only locally. If that is the case, the central version will be loaded by default when viewing the app.
If you're account has the Notation Manual user permission, you will also see a warning when loading the app, informing about the difference.
When you open the Notation Manual settings, you will see a dialog showing who updated both versions and when.

Save & Close
Save the Notation Manual centrally (in TRUECHART Service) and close the dialog.
Close
Close the Notation Manual dialog without saving. Previously made changes can be reverted by confirmation.
Save local
Saves the current Notation Manual configuration within the local app. In this way, the settings can also be used on another system (even without service), e.g. a desktop version.
Another use case for this is the ability to transfer the central Notation Manual configuration from one TRUECHART service to another. The procedure for this is as follow:
Execute "Load server version", if it is not already in use. If you only see a "Load local version" button, the central Notation Manual is already loaded.
Execute "Save local" to save the central Notation Manual from the service within the local app.
Export the app from the source system.
Import the app into the target system, go to a sheet with TRUECHART and open the Notation Manual dialog.
Execute Load local version to apply the locally stored version of the Notation Manual to the app. By default, the service version of the Notation Manual is always used initially.
Execute Save & Close to save the locally loaded and applied Notation Manual in the central TRUECHART service. This way the changed Notation Manual will be used automatically by all TRUECHART visualizations on this server.
Reset
Discard amendments in the central server version and loads the default Notation Manual. (See also Set as default function)
Set as default
Overrides the default Notation Manual with current parameters.
Load local version
Loads the Notation Manual configuration which is locally stored in-app. After loading the Notation Manual is used for all visualizations within the current app until the browser page is refreshed. This has no effect on other TRUECHART visualizations in other apps on the current server.When the local version of the Notation Manual is active it can be saved to the central Notation Manual. This will then automatically be updated in all trueChart visualizations on the current server.
In this tab general text-settings and styles for TRUECHART elements like Titles, Subtitles, Charts, and Comments can be amended.
