Description of MicroChart 2000 program from Softdepia.com:
MicroChart was originally developed as a DOS graphics program in 1983 during my teaching assignment at the University of Hawaii and from the very beginning has been used to design and chart the halftime shows of the University of Hawaii "Rainbow" Marching Band and the Hula Bowl All-Star Halftime Pageantry. Since most other early marching band drill design programs were for the Apple? (then IIe) computers, MicroChart was one of the first program of it's kind for the DOS/IBM PC platform. A Windows? version was released in 1991 which included several major enhancements that took advantage of the new graphical environment.
Now in it's fourth major revision for Windows 9x/ME/2000 and NT, MicroChart 2000 supports the newer functions, controls, and interface improvements of these environments. Some of the features of MicroChart 2000 include:
Drawing Tools: point, line, block, parallelogram, arc, circle, freeform curves
Edit Functions: copy, delete, move, scale, rotate, mirror, join, center, alter symbol & color, and zoom
Multiple zoom magnifications for precision placement of objects
True perspective view for press or visitors with adjustable height & distance settings
Selectable colors for positions and grid
Multiple document support - load and work with several drills at a time

Support for high school, NCAA, and professional league hash and yardline markings
Batch printing of chart files
