Editing a Chart Points File

This section describes how to edit files that contain definitions of primary chart points to be included or excluded from a chart, grid or report.

There are six different types of chart point files...

•Displayed Points - These are the points that are to be displayed in any chart or page image or chart report.

•Displayed Transiting Points - These are the points that are displayable in any transits chart or page image or chart report.

•Aspected Points - These are the points to which aspects are drawn in any chart image.

•Radix Points - These are the points that are used as radix points in a dynamic report.

•Transiting Points - These are the points that are calculated as transits to the radix points in a dynamic report.

•Progressing Points - These are the points that are calculated as progressions or directions to the radix points in a dynamic report.
