==About View Modes On the One Pager Page Layout Tab==

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

The OnePager '''Chart Editor''' operates in three user-controlled '''view modes'''. '''View mode''' selection is done from the OnePager '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab's '''View Modes''' control group as shown here:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1-70-(1)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1-70-(1)-08252019.png</center>-->

The four (4) '''view modes''' are:

===Normal===  

The '''Normal View mode''' is the default '''view mode''' in the '''Chart Editor''' window when OnePager is launched. As such, the '''Normal View''' displayed in the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab is no different from the display in the '''Chart Editor''' under any other OnePager ribbon tool bar tab.

===Page Break===

The '''Page Break View mode''' displays in the '''Chart Editor''' window of the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab and shows the entire chart '''sectioned''' into '''pages''' with the '''page numbers''' displayed as '''watermarks''' in each section.

===Print Preview===

The '''Print Preview mode''' displays in the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab's '''Chart Editor''' window but shows each page of the '''multi-page''' set of '''pages''' with all '''titles, headers, footers, the time axis, the legend, swimlane labels, text columns, and all decorations''' created for the chart.

===Freeze Panes===

The '''freeze panes''' feature allows you to retain '''time axis, '''swimlanes''', and/or '''text columns as '''visual reference elements''' while performing '''vertical''' or '''horizontal''' scrolling in the chart.  The '''freeze panes''' feature is only operative in the '''Normal view mode''' and '''Page Break view mode'''.

For more information on the '''Freeze Panes''' feature, please see the section at the link below:

==Entering the Multi-Page Mode==

OnePager automatically enters the '''Multi-Page Mode''' whenever a change is made on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab or on the '''Chart Properties''' form's '''Page Layout''' tab that causes OnePager to build more than '''one page''' for the chart.  For example, changing the '''Height''' value in the '''Document Fitting''' control group of the '''Page Layout''' tab shown above from 1 to '''Automatic'''.  As another example, inserting a '''manual page break''' is another way to enter the '''Multi-Page Mode'''.  In a similar fashion, OnePager '''leaves''' the '''Multi-Page Mode''' if you revert to '''Document Fitting''' group settings that calls for the '''width''' and '''height''' to be '''1 x 1''' or you '''remove''' all inserted '''manual page breaks''' accomplishing the same '''1 x 1''' view.

==Normal View Mode==

The default setting in OnePager with respect to '''view mode''' is '''Normal'''.  In this '''view mode''', you can see the entire chart, even if the chart ultimately spans '''multiple pages'''.  When in '''Normal view mode''', the selection button on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab is highlighted as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(1)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(1)-08252019.png</center>-->

In addition, the '''Page Break''' button is '''enabled''' in '''Normal view mode'''. In the '''Normal view mode''', you can '''edit''' the chart.  Please note that '''page breaks''', if any, are not actually visible in the '''Normal view mode'''.  If you want to enter '''manual page breaks''' by clicking the '''Page Break''' button on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab, OnePager automatically switches the '''view mode''' from '''Normal view mode''' to '''Page Break view mode'''.

==Page Break View Mode==

The '''Page Break view mode''' is similar to the '''Normal view mode''', except that it superimposes '''page break lines''' and '''page numbers''' as '''watermarks''' on top of the '''graph''' in the '''Chart Editor'''. The illustration below shows a chart with '''page breaks and page numbers''' a part of the '''Page Break view''':

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(2)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(2)-08252019.png</center>-->

The granularity of '''page breaks''' is determined '''vertically''' at the '''row''' level and '''horizontally''' at the smallest '''time axis''' division.  '''Manual Page breaks''' snap to the nearest allowed location ('''horizontally''' or '''vertically''') as you drags them with the mouse. '''Pages''' are numbered from left to right and then from top to bottom. Just like the '''Normal view mode''', all '''editing''' controls and capabilities are available in the '''Page Break view mode''' in the '''Chart Editor'''.

==Print Preview Mode==

The '''Print Preview view mode''' shows each '''page''' as it appears in the '''clipboard''', on a '''printer page''', or on some other '''output media'''.  This '''Print Preview view mode''' allows you to see exactly how your chart appears on each '''page''', including viewing '''repeated elements''' (e.g. swimlanes, rows, the legend, and time axes, etc.).  An example of a '''Print Preview''' is shown below for the four page example above:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(3)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(3)-08252019.png</center>-->

The document is shown in a '''read-only''' page-by-page rendering where you have the capability to scroll from one page to the next.  You cannot '''move shapes''' up or down in '''Print Preview view mode''' nor can the '''Legend''' be moved. Depending on the options selected, various '''adornments elements''' of the chart can be '''repeated''' across some or all of the '''pages'''.  

===Repeating Page Adornment Elements===

The following common '''page adornment elements''' can be '''repeated'''.

====Swimlane Level Labels and Text Columns====

'''Swimlane Level Labels and Text Columns''' can be '''repeated''' as required for additional horizontal pages.  If a '''vertical page break''' splits a swimlane, then the swimlane '''label''' is '''repeated''' for the partial swimlane on the next '''page''' below it. '''Multiple swimlane levels''' are supported.

====Time Axes====

'''Time axes''' can be '''repeated''' as required for additional '''vertical pages'''.   If a '''horizontal page break''' splits a larger '''time axis''' division (e.g., splitting Q1 between Feb and Mar), then the '''time axis label''' is '''repeated''' on the next page to the right, provided space exists.  '''Time Axis level cell stretching''' is taken into consideration.

====Page Header and Page Footer====

The '''Page Header''' can be '''repeated''' as required on each '''page'''. The '''Page Footer''' can also be '''repeated''' as requested on each '''page'''.

====Title====

The chart '''Title''' can be '''repeated''' as required on each '''page'''.

====Legend====

The chart's '''Legend''' can be '''repeated''' as required on each '''page'''.  The control for turning the '''Legend''' '''ON''' and '''OFF''' is found on the OnePager '''View''' ribbon tool bar tab.  

For more direct control of the visibility of the '''Legend''' on '''multiple pages''' and the placement of the '''Legend''' within the chart or the document, please see the article at:

===Repeating Adornment Elements Control===

It is at your option to determine what '''adornment elements''' are '''repeated''' and which are not by using the controls in the '''Template Properties''' or the '''Chart Properties''' forms. You can navigate to other OnePager ribbon tool bar tabs while remaining in the '''Print Preview view mode''' screen.  If any changes are made through the application of controls in other '''Chart Editor''' tabs that impact the chart’s size, the '''Print Preview view mode''' is '''updated''' accordingly. OnePager attempts to make the '''best fit''' possible over '''multiple pages''' for '''adornment elements''' such as '''swimlane labels''',  '''text columns''', and '''task names'''.  Additionally, OnePager attempts to split chart '''decorations''' based upon the placement of '''page breaks'''.  As an example, consider the following chart where a '''comment box''' is added at the junction of the '''four pages''' as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(4)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(4)-08252019.png</center>-->

==Freeze Panes Feature==

===Page Layout Tab Controls and Options===

The chart is often '''bordered''' by a combination of the top '''time axis''', the left '''swimlane level cells''' and '''text columns''', and the bottom '''time axis'''.  When the chart is '''zoomed in''', scrolling can cause these useful '''reference elements''' to scroll off your screen.  The '''freeze panes''' feature allows you to retain one or more of these '''visual reference elements''' while performing '''vertical''' or '''horizontal''' scrolling in the chart.  The '''freeze panes''' feature is only operative in the '''Normal view mode''' and '''Page Break view mode'''.  The controls for the '''freeze panes''' feature are contained on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab as shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(5)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(5)-08252019.png</center>-->

There are four (4) '''basic options''' as presented above:

:1) '''Freeze all''' 

:2) '''Freeze top time axis'''

:3) '''Freeze rows and swimlane labels'''

:4) '''Freeze bottom time axis'''

There is an '''additional option''' for turning all of the options '''OFF''' with a single command:  '''Freeze none'''.

===Example===

Given that '''rows and swimlane labels''' and both top and bottom '''time axes''' are displayed in a sample chart, that the chart is zoomed in, and further scrolled down and to the right. We can illustrate these '''Freeze all''' capability in the illustration below:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(6)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(6)-08252019.png</center>-->

'''Freeze Top Time Axis:'''  When the top '''time axis''' is '''frozen''', any vertical scrolling keeps the top '''time axis''' visible as shown above. '''Freeze Text Columns and Swimlane Labels:'''  In a similar fashion, if the '''freeze''' '''text columns''' and swimlane '''labels''' command is selected and the chart is scrolled to the right, the '''text columns''' and swimlane '''labels''' in the chart remain visible as shown above. '''Freeze Bottom Time Axis:'''  Selecting the '''Freeze Bottom time axis''' command makes the bottom '''time axis''' visible. '''Freeze All:'''  The '''Freeze All''' command turns '''all freeze pane options''' '''ON'''. 

In the chart above, both the top and bottom '''time axes''' are turned '''ON''' and visible.  Only the top '''time axis''' is subject to the '''freeze frame option''' if only the top '''time axis''' is displayed. In the above chart, the top and bottom '''time axes''' remain visible along with the swimlane '''labels''' regardless of how the chart is scrolled up/down or left/right. The '''Freeze None''' option turns '''OFF''' all options related to the '''freeze pane''' feature.

===Using the Page Break View Mode with the Freeze Pane Feature===

You can navigate to other '''View modes''' after configuring the '''freeze pane''' options.  For example, going from the '''Freeze Pane''' button to the '''Page Break''' button reveals the following:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(7)-08252019.png]]</center>
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_1-70-(7)-08252019.png</center>-->

The chart is fully '''editable''' in the '''Page Break view mode''' and all scrolling conforms to whatever '''freeze pane''' options are turned '''ON'''. When you click in a '''frozen''' '''text column''' or swimlane '''label''', nothing happens.   

If you slow left-click in a '''frozen''' '''text column''' or swimlane '''label''', OnePager scrolls to a scroll position where the '''label''' is no longer '''frozen''' so that you can now select the '''text column''' or swimlane '''label''', '''edit''' it, '''hide''' the '''text column or swimlane''', or '''add''' an '''text column or swimlane'''. If you select the '''Print Preview view mode''' with the '''freeze pane''' options used above, you see the output as it looks regardless of '''freezing''', '''zoom factor''', or chart scrolling.  

Some controls on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab are '''disabled''' in the '''Print Preview view mode'''.  For example, the '''Page Break''' button on the tab is '''disabled''' because you cannot '''add''' a '''manual page break''' in the '''Print Preview view mode'''.  Likewise, the '''Freeze Panes''' button is '''disabled'''.  The '''Print preview''' for a four (4) page example is shown below:

<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_1-70-(8)-08252019.png]]</center>
