OnePager Express Desktop: Opening an EXISTING Project View - OnePager Express Desktop 7.6.2-70

Updating an Existing Chart

1) Updating a chart involves either ADDING a snapshot or REPLACING a snapshot and each can be done by either a Push or Pull Operation.

2) Please see the links that immediately follow:

REPLACING a Snapshot Using the Pull Operation

OnePager Pro: REPLACING a Snapshot via Pull Operation - OnePager Pro 7.14.1-70 or Custom Update (Replacing) of a Snapshot via Pull Operation - OnePager Pro 7.16.1-70

OnePager Express: REPLACING a Snapshot via Pull Operation - OnePager Express 7.14.2-70 or Custom Update (Replacing) of a Snapshot via Pull Operation - OnePager Express 7.16.2-70

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 chart is/are correct.

2) Please see the article at this link: Using the OnePager "Data" Tab's "Selected file(s)" Button 7.17.1-70 for more information and an example.

Saving a Project View (Save)

1) When a chart is created, opened, or updated, as with other Microsoft Windows applications, the chart 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 chart was first created (NEW).
b) If the chart has not yet been saved, you are prompted to create a .TAM file name for it.

P61-23_1_1-61-(1)-11032017.png

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

P61-23 1 1-61-(2)-11032017.png
P61-23_1_1-61-(2)-11032017.png

4) A third way to cause the chart 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 chart, the application is closed without saving.
b) However, if changes were made to the chart during the session, a Chronicle Graphics message form is displayed giving you the option to save the chart:
P61-23 1 1-61-(3)-11032017.png
P61-23_1_1-61-(3)-11032017.png

5) Finally, you can always force the saving of the chart 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 chart, the above Chronicle Graphics message is displayed with the options shown.

Saving a Chart to a New .TAM File (Save As)

1) At some point, you want to create one or more additional charts 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 chart and not in another.

3) Please note Saving a chart 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). 24.0.1-70

Using Save As

4) To create a new chart 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 chart form as shown below:

P53-23 1 1-53-(9)-10052016.png

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:

P53-23 1 1-53-(18)-10052016.png
