Restoring Default Formatting for Version 6.1

About Restoring Default Formatting

1) When you first create your OnePager chart, all of the tasks and milestones adhere to the formatting settings that were established in the current Template form you are using.

2) As you make changes to your project view, you often change the format properties of tasks and milestones so that they no longer adhere to this default formatting. In so doing, you are creating mavericks.

Restoring the Default Formatting for a Task/Milestone

1) To restore a task or milestone to its default formatting, right click the task or milestone, choose Format… command in the context menu, and then click the Use Format Defaults button as shown here:
