Brief           

The class starts with a brief discussion of the system block diagram of a Graphic Central System. All components of the system are discussed to a functional level. The course first motivates the graphic generation process. The course then discusses every graphic generation tool provided by the Designer program itself.

These tools are learned very quickly by extensive lab exercises and ample lab time. After the Designer tools are mastered the course introduces the repertoire of cleverly generated Honeywell graphic objects to be used by the technique of cut-and-paste.

The course also goes into a discussion of the aesthetics of graphic object proportionality, color and symmetry concepts.

The course finally discusses the problem of graphic hierarchy as recommended by the Honeywell literature and the techniques to implement the hierarchy. The course culminates with a full discussion on graphic assignment and programming using the Honeywell graphic user interface program. The course also covers graphic importing from other graphic programs into the Designer program.

                        Written exercises are used to reinforce the learning process.
