Flowcode Support Board

Not sure if there is already a feature on the books yet or not but I do a lot of forums reading while away from my 'flowcode machine'
It would be nice if I could view peoples uploaded flowcharts in browser. Including the older versions as often the different flowcode versions wont open in newer flowcode versions

Ben has made one...

Doesn't seem to work with .fcf files

I think he created it around v9 - so probably not.
It's possible to convert files using v7 - but as previous versions are now so far past 'support' - I'm not sure whether they would spend their time on handling them? Someone might like to create a 'converter' - but it depends on the format of the old .fcf files. The .fcfx are in XML and fairly easy to work with.

It would be a nice feature as there is a lot of 'how to do' info in the older forums

That old .fcf file format is not easy to work with or interpret and so your best option is to convert to .fcfx manually using Flowcode v7. It would be roo much effort to create a stand-alone .fcf -> .fcfx convertor.

Defeats the webviewer purpose then

The .fcf file format was 'retired' over 10 years ago and all versions from v6 onwards have been using the new .fcfx format.
