Updating Using the OnePager Data Tab

1) The Data tab’s Selected file(s) button on the ribbon is useful in verifying that you have the correct source plans associated with the open project view is/are correct.

2) Please see the article at this link: Using the OnePager "Data" Tab's "Selected file(s)" Button for more information and an example.

Saving a Project View (Save)

1) When a project view is created, opened, or updated, as with other Microsoft Windows applications, the project view can be saved in four (4) ways:

2) Above the OnePager tool bar and ribbon is a Save icon as shown below.

a) When this icon is clicked, OnePager automatically saves the open project view in the .TAM file you named when the project view was first created (NEW).
b) If the project view has not yet been saved, you are prompted to create a .TAM file name for it.

3) A second way to save an open project view is to click the File tab as shown below. When the File tab is displayed, click the Save tab and the open project view is saved:

4) A third way to cause the project view to be saved is to click the Close tab shown above which is the typical Microsoft Windows method for closing the application.

a) If no changes were made to the open project view, the application is closed without saving.
b) However, if changes were made to the project view during the session, a Chronicle Graphics message form is displayed giving you the option to save the project view:

5) Finally, you can always force the saving of the project view if changes were made by clicking the white X in the upper right corner of the screen.

a) Again, if no changes were made the application is close.
b) If changes were made to the project view, the above Chronicle Graphics message is displayed with the options shown.

Saving a Project View to a New .TAM File (Save As)

1) At some point, you want to create one or more additional project views that show the same imported data in a different way.

2) For example, you want to assign colors based on a different data fields. Or you want to show critical path segments in one project view and not in another.

3) Please note Saving a project view as a new .TAM file is not the same as creating a Template.

Please review the articles involving Templates using this link: Managing Templates (Portal).

Using Save As

4) To create a new project view name and .TAM file from an existing one, go to the OnePager ribbon, click the File button, and click the Save as… command.

5) This brings up the Save As project view form as shown below:

Retrieving a Saved As File

6) Whenever you launch OnePager again and want to OPEN this file, it can be found by clicking the OPEN button in the OnePager Pro Start form, then clicking BROWSE FILES button and looking up the file in the Microsoft Windows Open form as shown below:

7) Selecting the file with a single left click and then clicking the Open button loads the file.
