View source for Editing Row Properties for Version 7.1

==Overview==

Illustrations used in this article are from OnePager Pro using data from Microsoft Project but the feature's function, controls, and manual edits apply equally to other OnePager editions that import from data sources like Microsoft Excel, Smartsheet, and Oracle Primavera P6.

In addition to '''defining row''' and '''text column''' properties in the '''Template''' and in the '''Chart Properties''' form, you can select a specific '''row''' or '''text column cell''' and individually '''edit''' its '''properties'''.  To do this, use your mouse to select a '''row''' or a '''text column cell''' with a right-click to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(1)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(1)-08142020.png</center>-->

In the illustration above, the '''Left#1 text column cell''' is right-clicked to select the '''row''' and the '''Left#1 text column cell''' and to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu'''.  Clicking the '''Properties …''' command accesses the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(2)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(2)-08142020.png </center>-->

As an alternative, use the '''slow left-click selection''' method to select just the '''Left#1 text column cell''', right-click to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''', and click the '''Properties …''' command where the '''Row/Column Properties''' form is accessed at the '''Cell''' tab as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(3)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(3)-08142020.png </center>-->

Either method in the above two illustrations allows you to access either tab of the '''Row/Column Properties''' form.  The access methods described above in general terms for OnePager Pro applies to OnePager Express as well.  Any '''edits''' made to a '''row''' or a '''text column cell''' using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s controls makes the '''row''' and/or '''text column cell''' a '''maverick'''.

In the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab you can '''edit '''the '''border properties''' of the selected '''row''', '''edit '''the selected '''text column cell’s background color''' (as described later on), and use the '''Use Default Row Properties''' button to revert any '''maverick rows''' back to their '''default settings'''.  '''Multiple rows''' and '''text column cells''' can be selected and '''edited''' using the controls in the '''Row/Column Properties''' form.

When selecting '''multiple rows''' or '''text column cells''', OnePager '''does allow''' selections in '''different text columns'''.  This is different from attempting to make '''multiple selections swimlanes''' or '''swimlane level cells''' in '''different swimlane levels'''. '''Multiple row''' and '''text column cell''' selections can be made using the '''CTL+Left-Click '''method to select any '''text column cell defined''' and '''showing''' in the chart. Attempting to use the '''SHIFT+Left-Click '''method to select '''a sequence of text column cells''' in '''different text columns''' is not supported.  Once you start a '''SHIFT+Left-Click''' selection in a '''text column''' you must continue the '''sequence''' of selections in that '''same text column'''.

This article describes the use of the '''Row/Column Properties''' form for the situations where '''one''' or '''multiple rows''' or '''text column cells''' are selected.

The next section covers the various methods for selecting '''rows''' for '''editing'''.  

If you are comfortable with these selection techniques, you can jump to the article sections at the link where the controls in the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s tabs are discussed:  [[Editing Row Properties for Version 7.1#Editing Row Properties with the Row/Column Properties Form’s Row Tab | Editing Row Properties with the Row/Column Properties Form’s Row Tab]] <!--12.22.1-71-->

==Accessing Rows for Editing Rows and Text Column Cells==

It may be necessary to '''edit''' the '''properties''' of a '''text column cell''' or set of '''text column cells''' for the purpose of highlighting them for your schedule discussion presentation.  This can be done by selecting the desired '''text column cell '''or''' cells''' using the appropriate mouse left-click and/or right-click combination selection methods to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''' and its '''Properties …''' command shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(4)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(4)-08142020.png </center>-->

This sub-section covers accessing the '''Row/Column Properties''' form using the available selection methods for '''rows '''and''' text column cells'''.

For more information on the '''selection methods available for rows and text column cells''', please see the article and sub-section at: [[About OnePager's Rows and Swimlanes for Version 7.1#Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns | Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns]] <!--12.0.2-71-->

===Accessing the Row/Column Properties Form – Single Row and Single Text Column Cell Selection===

Clicking the '''Properties …''' command when a '''row''' is selected accesses the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Row''' tab shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(5)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(5)-08142020.png </center>-->

The '''editing '''controls available in the '''Row/Column Properties '''form’s '''Row '''tab are applied to all selected '''rows''' when the form’s '''OK '''button is clicked.

====Accessing a Single Row====

Using the above illustration as an example, the '''single row '''can be accessed as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(6)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(6)-08142020.png </center>-->

Once accessed, any '''edits''' applied to the '''Row''' may be applied to '''all text column cells defined''' and '''showing''' and the '''row''' portion extending into the '''graph'''.  For example, if the '''Left#1 text column cell''' is used to access the '''Row/Column Properties''' form, changing the '''Row Background Color''' applies to the '''Left#1''' and '''Left#2''' '''text column cells''' as these '''text column cells''' are in the same '''row '''from the form’s perspective.  The portion of the '''row''' in the '''graph area''' also takes on the selected '''row background color'''.

Making such an '''edit''' to change the '''Row Background Color''' to '''red''' changes the configuration of the chart to look like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(7)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(7)-08142020.png </center>-->

Regardless of which of the '''two text column cells''' is initially selected in the above illustration, the result shown above is the same.  This is because '''text columns''' are not organized into '''levels''' as are '''swimlanes''' but remain a component of the '''row'''.

====Accessing a Single Text Column Cell====

Clicking the '''Properties …''' command when a single '''text column cell''' is selected accesses the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Cell''' tab shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(8)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(8)-08142020.png </center>-->

Use the '''slow left-click selection method''' to select an individual '''text column cell''' and follow the selection action with the method described above to access the '''Row/Column Properties '''form at the '''Cell''' tab as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(8A)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(8A)-08142020.png </center>-->

When a '''single text column cell''' is selected with the '''slow left-click method''' and the '''Row/Column Properties''' form is accessed at the '''Cell '''tab and the same '''edit''' as shown above is applied, only the '''Left#1 text column cell''' has its '''Cell Background Color''' changed to '''red''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(9)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(9)-08142020.png</center>-->

===Accessing the Row/Column Properties Form – Multiple Row and Text Column Cell Selection===

You can select '''multiple swimlanes''' or '''multiple swimlane level cells''' as long as they are at the same '''swimlane level'''.  However, no such restriction applies for selecting '''multiple text column cells''' in '''different text columns'''.  The '''CTL+Left-Click '''or '''SHIFT+Left-Click '''selection techniques can be used to select '''multiple rows''' or '''multiple text column cells''' for '''editing''' using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row '''or''' Cell''' tabs.

For more information on the '''selection methods available for selecting multiple rows or multiple text column cells''', please see the article and sub-section at: [[About OnePager's Rows and Swimlanes for Version 7.1#Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns | Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns]] <!--12.0.2-71-->

====CTL+Left-Click Method Used to Select Multiple Individual Rows ====

'''Multiple rows''' can be '''edited '''with the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab as demonstrated below using the access method previously described:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(10)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(10)-08142020.png</center>-->

'''Edits''' made in the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab are applied to all selected '''rows'''.  Using the '''CTL+Left-Click '''is effective in selecting '''rows''' when done in either of the '''two text columns''' shown in the illustration above.

====SHIFT+Left-Click Method Used to Select Multiple Sequential Rows ====

Use '''SHIFT+Left-Click''' method to select a sequence of '''rows '''for '''editing''' with the '''Row/Column Properties''' form as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(11)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(11)-08142020.png</center>-->

'''Edits''' made in the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab are applied to all selected '''rows'''.

====Using Slow Left-Click and CTL+Left-Click Methods to Select Multiple Individual Text Column Cells ====

Use the '''slow left-click''' method in conjunction with the '''CTL+Left-Click '''method to select '''individual text column cells''' in the '''same or different''' '''text column'''.  The method involves first getting the mouse device into the '''slow left-click mode''' and then using the '''CTL+Left-Click '''method to select the desired '''individual text column  cells''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(12)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(12)-08142020.png</center>-->

The illustration above purposely shows '''text column cells''' selected with the '''slow left-click''' method in both the '''Left#1''' and '''Left#2 text columns'''. Note that the '''text column number''' showing the '''Text Column''' control group '''heading''' of the above form indicates that the '''Left#1 Cell Properties''' are the '''primary focus''' of the form. This is because in the illustration above, the right-click used to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''' is made in the '''last Left#1 text column cell'''. Although you can select '''text column cells''' in '''any text column defined''' and '''showing''' in the chart, the '''edits '''only apply to those '''text column cells''' in the '''text column number''' showing in the form.

Once the '''several individual text column cells''' are selected, as shown above, a right-click in the '''last Left#1 selected text column cell''' accesses the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu'''.  Clicking the '''Properties …''' command accesses the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab for the '''Left#1 Cell Properties''' where any '''edits''' that are made to the controls at the '''Cell''' tab apply to all selected '''individual Left#1 text column cells'''.

For example, we can change the '''Cell Background Color''' to '''red''' for the selected '''individual Left#1 text column cells''' by using the standard OnePager '''Color Chooser''' form as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(13)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(13)-08142020.png</center>-->

As specified, all selected '''rows''' have their '''text column cells edited''' such that their '''Cell Background Color''' is '''red'''.  After closing the '''Row/Column Properties''' form, the chart looks like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(13A)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(13A)-08142020.png</center>-->

====Using Slow Left-Click and SHIFT+Left-Click Methods to Select a Sequence of Text Column Cells ====

Use the '''slow left-click''' method in conjunction with the '''SHIFT+Left-Click '''method to access a '''sequence of text column cells''' in the '''same text column'''.  The method involves first getting the mouse device into the '''slow left-click mode''' and then using the '''SHIFT+Left-Click '''method to select the desired '''sequence of text column cells''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(14)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(14)-08142020.png</center>-->

Once the '''sequence of text column cells''' are selected, as shown above, a right-click in the '''last selected text column cell''' accesses the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu'''.  Clicking the '''Properties …''' command accesses the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab for the '''Left#1 Cell Properties''' where any '''edits''' that are made to the controls at the '''Cell''' tab apply to all selected '''individual Left#1 text column cells'''.

For this example, we can change the '''Cell Background Color''' to '''red''' for the selected '''sequence of Left#1 text column cells''' by using the standard OnePager '''Color Chooser''' form as shown below:

<center>[[File:P71-12_22_1-71-(15-1)-04052022.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P71-12_22_1-71-(15-1)-04052022.png</center>-->

==Editing Row Properties with the Row/Column Properties Form’s Row Tab==

The '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab is shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(5)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(5)-08142020.png </center>-->

===Requirements for Editing Row Borders===

In order to '''edit row borders''' using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab, the '''Show Row Borders''' checkbox in the '''Row Formatting''' form, accessed from '''the Chart Properties''' or '''Template Properties '''form’s '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab’s '''Rows''' control group must be checked '''ON''' as shown below:  

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(15A)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(15A)-08172020.png</center>-->

If you intend to '''maverick''' some '''row borders''' but not '''all row borders''', '''row borders''' can be '''hidden '''by accessing the '''Row Formatting''' form as shown above, then accessing the standard OnePager '''Color Chooser''' form, and setting the '''color''' for '''row borders''' to '''No fill''' as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(15B)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(15B)-08172020.png</center>-->

When these actions are taken, the '''row borders''' in the chart are reconfigured to look like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(15C)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(15C)-08172020.png</center>-->

To further de-emphasize '''row borders''', you have the option of removing the '''row striping''' using the controls in the '''Chart Properties''' or '''Template Properties '''form’s '''Main''' tab’s '''Chart Background''' control group.  Additionally, if desired, you can '''remove all row borders''' from the chart which is the starting condition that is used below to demonstrate the '''mavericking of row borders''' using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab.

===Manually Editing Row Properties with the Row/Column Properties form’s Row Tab===

There are three control groups on this form for:  

:1) '''Border''', 

:2) '''Row Background Color''', 

:3) '''Use Default Row Properties''' button.

There are three sub-control groups in the '''Border '''control group shown at the top of this section.  You have control over the selected '''row’s Border type''', '''Top border''' and '''Bottom border colors''', the '''Line width '''of the '''top and bottom border lines''', and the '''Dash type''' for the '''top and bottom border lines'''.

====Border Types for Row Borders====

There are '''four border types''' available for use in the form.  For the selected '''row''' or '''rows''' there are options for turning '''ON''' both the '''top '''and''' bottom borders''', either the '''top '''or''' the bottom borders ON''', or neither '''top '''nor''' bottom border ON'''.  Any changes made to the '''global setting of row borders''' make the '''row''' or '''rows''' into a '''maverick'''.

====Mavericking Border Types for Row Borders - Example====

To provide an example, the sample '''BlueGrass Project Plan Report – Pro''' chart is modified '''globally''' to '''remove all row''' and '''swimlane borders''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_23_1-(16)-08122020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_23_1-(16)-08122020.png</center>-->

Recall that the '''Show row borders''' checkbox in the '''Row Formatting''' form referenced in the previous sub-section above, must be checked '''ON'''. 

In the illustration that follows, we’ll '''maverick row borders''' as follows:

:* The '''row''' with the '''Create Working Plans''' task bar is updated so its '''bottom border''' is turned '''ON''' with '''line size 2.0''', '''Color Black''', '''Dash type – Dot'''.
:* The '''row''' with the '''Engineering Team 1 Development''' task bar is updated so its '''top border''' is turned '''ON''' with '''line size 3.0''', '''Color Red''', and '''Dash type – Dash-dot-dot'''.
:* The '''row''' with the '''Engineering Team 1 Rework''' is updated so that its '''top '''and''' bottom borders''' are turned '''ON''' with '''line size 3.5''', '''Color Blue''', and '''Dash type – Solid'''.

When these '''maverick''' changes are '''applied''' to the individual elements mentioned above using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab, the chart is modified to look like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(17)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(17)-08172020.png</center>-->

===Manually Editing Row Background Colors with the Row/Column Properties form’s Rows Tab===

The standard OnePager '''Color Chooser''' form is used the change the '''background color''' of the selected '''row''' or '''rows'''.  Recall that with '''text columns''' in the chart, changing the '''background color''' for a '''Left#1 text column cell''' propagates the '''color''' change to the '''Left#2''' '''text column cells''' (if present) and into the '''row''' itself as shown in the sequence below: 

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(18)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(18)-08172020.png</center>-->

When the '''OK''' button is clicked on the '''Row/Column Properties''' form, the configuration of the chart is changed to this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(19)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(19)-08172020.png</center>-->

When the selected '''row''' is '''de-selected''', the chart looks like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(20)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(20)-08172020.png</center>-->

===Manually Editing Text Column’s Background Colors with the Row/Column Properties form’s Cell Tab===

Using the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Row''' tab’s '''Row Background Color''' control, changes the entire '''row''' to the '''new row background color'''.  If you want to select a '''Left#1 text column cell''' and change just the '''Left#1 text column cell’s background color''' you must access the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Cell''' tab.  This can be done by using the '''slow left-click''' selection method to just select the '''Left#1 text column cell''' or use a standard selection method on the '''Left#1 text column cell''' to access the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Row''' tab and simply click the '''Cell''' tab as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(21)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(21)-08172020.png</center>-->

When the '''OK''' button on the '''Row/Column Properties''' form is clicked and the '''Left#1 text column cell''' is '''de-selected''', the chart looks like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(22)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(22)-08172020.png</center>-->

The procedure for changing the '''properties''' of the chart portion of the '''swimlane''' (i.e., to the right of the '''text columns''') is explained in the '''Editing Swimlane Properties''' article at: [[Editing Swimlane Properties for Version 7.1 | Editing Swimlane Properties]] <!--12.23.1-71-->

===The Use Default Row Properties Button in the Row/Column Properties form’s Row Tab===

The purpose of the '''Use Default Row Properties''' button is to '''restore''' the selected '''row''' or '''row’s properties''' to the settings in the current '''Chart Properties''' form or '''Template Properties''' form.  This is done by first selecting the '''row''' or '''rows''' that you want to '''restore''', accessing the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Row tab''' and clicking the '''Use Default Row Properties''' button.

'''Note''' that the '''Use Default Row Properties''' button is '''enabled''' whenever a change is made to a '''row '''or''' row’s properties'''.  As an example, suppose we start with the chart configuration where we '''mavericked''' a '''row''' by giving it a '''background color''' of '''red''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(20)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(20)-08172020.png</center>-->

If we now select one of the '''row’s text column cells''' and access the '''Row/Column Properties''' form the chart shows the illustration below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(23)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(23)-08172020.png</center>-->

When the '''Use Default Row Properties''' form is clicked and the form is '''closed''' by clicking the '''OK''' button, the chart’s configuration changes to that shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(24)-08172020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(24)-08172020.png</center>-->

==Editing Text Column Cell Properties with the Row/Column Properties Form’s Cell Tab==

The '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab looks like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(8)-08142020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(8)-08142020.png </center>-->

The '''properties''' that can be '''edited''' in this tab include:

:* The '''text''' within the selected '''text column cell''', 
:* The '''text’s font properties''', 
:* The '''horizontal '''and''' vertical alignment''' of the '''text''' within the '''text column cell '''or '''cells''', 
:* The '''cell’s background color''', 
:* And the '''rotation''' of the '''text column cell’s text'''.

Additionally, there is a '''Use Default Cell Properties''' button that can be used to '''restore''' any '''mavericked text column cell’s properties''' back to the '''global settings''' in the '''Chart Properties''' or '''Template Properties''' forms.   Several of these controls such as the '''Text''' window, the '''Font''' control dropdown that accesses the '''Font properties''' form, and the two sets of three '''Alignment '''buttons are standard within OnePager.  These controls perform the same '''editing functions''' as when used for '''editing''' the '''properties of text elements''' for graphic objects such as '''task bars/milestone symbols''', '''comment boxes''', '''time axis level cells''', and '''vertical curtains'''.

Extensive examples are not provided here for the above mentioned controls.  

Please reference the links in the '''related links '''section at: [[Editing Row Properties for Version 7.1#Related Links | Related Links]] <!--12.22.1-71-->

Rather, the remaining focus in this sub-section is on the '''Cell Background Color''' control, the '''Text Rotation''' control, and the '''Use Default Cell Properties''' button.

===Manually Editing Text Column Cell Background Colors with the Row/Column Properties form’s Cell Tab===

'''Manually editing''' a selected '''text column cell''' or '''cells''' for '''background color''' requires that the '''text column cell''' or '''cells '''be individually selected with one of the appropriate '''cell '''selection methods.  When the '''text column cell''' or '''cells''' are selected and the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab is accessed, then the standard OnePager '''Color Chooser''' form can be accessed by clicking on the '''Cell Background Color''' dropdown as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(25)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(25)-08182020.png</center>-->

When the '''OK''' button on the '''Row/Column Properties''' form is clicked, the three selected '''Left#1 text column cells''' are reconfigured as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(26)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(26)-08182020.png</center>-->

Recall that '''text column cell''' '''mavericking''' can only be done in the '''same text column''' so that selecting '''cells '''in '''different text columns '''to change their '''background colors''' for must be done on '''an individual text column''' basis.

===Manually Editing Text Column Cell’s Text Rotation with the Row/Column Properties form’s Cell Tab===

The '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab’s '''Text Rotation''' control provides '''three different orientation''' of '''text''' contained within a selected '''text column cell''' or '''cells'''.  You have the option to '''rotate text column cell text horizontally''' (the typical '''default''' setting), '''rotate text column cell text 90 degrees clockwise''', and '''rotate text column cell text 270 degrees clockwise'''.  The dropdown list for the '''Text Rotation''' control in the '''Row/Column Properties''' form’s '''Cell''' tab looks like this:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(27)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(27)-08182020.png</center>-->

As an example, we can '''rotate the text''' '''90 degrees''' in the '''Left#1 text column cell '''in the '''row''' containing the '''Create Work Plans '''task bar''' '''to get the configuration of '''text''' within the '''cell''' shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(28)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(28)-08182020.png</center>-->

In the illustration above, the '''height of the row''' is '''increased''' to show the '''rotated text''' as a single string.

'''Text column cell text rotation''' is sometimes useful in order to help decrease the '''width''' of a''' text column '''and allow more '''horizontal space''' for the chart itself.

===The Use Default Cell Properties Button in the Row/Column Properties form’s Cell Tab===

The purpose of the '''Use Default Cell Properties''' button is to '''restore''' the selected '''text column cell''' or '''cell’s properties''' to the settings in the current '''Chart Properties''' form or '''Template Properties''' form.  This is done by first selecting the '''text column cell''' or '''cells''' that you want to '''restore''', accessing the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Cell tab''', and clicking the '''Use Default Cell Properties''' button.  '''Note''' that the '''Use Default Cell Properties''' button is '''enabled''' whenever a change is made to a '''text column cell '''or''' cell’s properties''' at a '''cell level'''.

As an example, suppose we start with the chart configuration where we '''mavericked''' the '''Left#1 text column cell''' to have a '''background color''' of '''red''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(29)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(29)-08182020.png</center>-->

If we now select this '''Left#1 text column cell''' and access the '''Row/Column Properties''' form at the '''Cell '''tab, the chart shows the illustration below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(30)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(30)-08182020.png</center>-->

When the '''Use Default Cell Properties''' form is clicked and the form is '''closed''' by clicking the '''OK''' button, the chart’s configuration changes to that shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-12_22_1-(31)-08182020.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-12_22_1-(31)-08182020.png</center>-->
