Resizing the Height of Swimlanes

Overview

OnePager allows you to resize swimlanes much in the way that rows can be resized.

Follow the setps below:

1) Begin by selecting one of more swimlanes by left clicking the swimlane label.

2) To select multiple swimlanes, hold down the CTRL key while selecting rows to be resized.

3) The following illustrates how a swimlane looks when selected:

4) To change the height of the swimlane, grab the top grab box, for example, with the cursor and move it up to increase the swimlane height.

5) The results look like this:

3) As shown above, increasing the height of a swimlane or swimlanes also changes the height of any task/milestone located in the row in that swimlane.

a) If the task/milestone height is set to be a percentage of the row height (relative height) the tasks/milestones therein will change height.

b) If you change the height of a swimlane, it will always proportionally change the height of the rows contained in the swimlane.

c) As these rows change height, the tasks and milestones will change their height to maintain their proportion to the row height if they are in relative mode. If they are in absolute mode, they will not change their height.

4) If the Gantt Bar Height control is set to Absolute height in the Project-View Properties (PVP) form’s Task Bar tab, then increasing the swimlane height will not increase the size of the task bars as shown below:
