Diagonal lines may intersect with other diagonal lines or with vertical or
horizontal lines. On the PanelView terminal, the diagonal lines are drawn
with the PanelView character set. The lines are drawn from one corner of
the character to the other (so they are not exactly 45 degrees). Where lines
overlap, special connector characters automatically replace the diagonal
lines.
The PanelBuilder character set cannot show overlapping diagonal lines, so
the crossing points are represented by characters from the IBM character
set, as shown in the following table.

Diagonal lines are only compatible with Version 2 or later firmware.
However, if you delete or erase all diagonal characters and no other
Version 2 features are enabled, the application file will be compatible with
Version 1 PanelView firmware. For more information on version control
see Chapter 2, Installing PanelBuilder.
