New colourful charts (popular request!)
The default colour scheme for charts is now colourful (changed from the previous grey scale scheme):
This change is in the results in a few places:
In the Results > Strategy Summary step
At the Results > Documents step, on the Download buttons, any templates where a colour isn't explicitly mentioned will use the default colourful scheme
Grey scale versions of the Strategy Paper and SOA foundation document will continue to be available - these will be marked with 'grey'. e.g. Strategy paper(grey)
Please note that the charts at the Results > Compare step are unchanged, but you can look forward to them being more colourful - and putting them in documents - in a future release.
New 'Strategy Overview' results document
In the Results > Documents, section, there is now a 'Strategy Overview' document that contains less information than the strategy paper and is useful for client meetings where you just want to focus on the bigger picture.
Click here to download a sample strategy overview document (note: this sample is in PDF format, but in Pathfinder it's in MS Word format).
