When '''text column cells '''and '''swimlane cells''' appear in the chart their contents are determined by data '''imported '''from your Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel '''source plan'''. It may be necessary on occasion to '''edit''' the contents of these '''cells''' to support your schedule presentation goals and objectives.
+
Illustrations used in this article are from OnePager Pro using data from Microsoft Project but the feature's function, controls, and manual edits apply equally to other OnePager editions that import from data sources like Microsoft Excel, Smartsheet, and Oracle Primavera P6.
  
−
It is not necessary to go back to your '''source plan '''and change the data and '''re-import''' that data to change '''text column cells''' or '''swimlane cells'''; changes can be made to individual or a set of selected '''cells''' in the '''Chart Editor'''. Within the '''Chart Editor''', you can use the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu’s''' '''Edit text''' and '''Properties … '''commands or the '''swimlane level '''right-click '''context menu’s''' '''Edit swimlane label '''and '''Properties … '''commands to edit '''labels''' as well as other '''label properties'''.
+
The '''Page Setup''' control group on the '''Page Layout''' ribbon tool bar tab provides two (2) controls for:

In addition to '''editing text column cells''' and '''swimlane cells''' using the right-click '''context menu''' commands, you can '''edit Font properties''' and '''Alignment settings''' of '''text column cells '''and '''swimlane cells''' using controls on the OnePager '''Home '''ribbon tool bar tab’s '''Font''' and '''Alignment''' control groups. Since being able to edit requires first selecting the '''cells''' to '''edit''', it may be beneficial to review the sections on '''selection methods for text column cells and swimlane cells ''' at: [[About OnePager's Rows and Swimlanes#Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns | Selection Methods Available for Multiple Text Columns]] <!--12.0.2-70--> and [[About OnePager's Rows and Swimlanes#Selection Methods Available for Multiple Swimlane Levels | Selection Methods Available for Multiple Swimlane Levels]] <!--12.0.2-70-->

Whenever you make a change to a '''text column cell '''or '''swimlane cell''',''' '''the '''edited cell''' becomes a '''maverick'''.
+
Each of these controls are described in the sub-sections below.

==Editing Text Column Cells==
+
==Page Size Setup==
  
−
===Editing Individual Text Column Cells Using the Edit text Form===
+
===Page Size Selection===
  
−
For the purpose of illustration, we’ll use the OnePager Pro chart below containing three '''swimlane levels''' and two '''text columns''':
+
The '''Page Size''' button is active in all '''View modes'''.  Clicking the '''Page Size''' button accesses the '''Page Size''' dropdown menu where you can change the selection of the '''output page product size'''.  The '''Page Size''' dropdown menu looks like this:
  
−

<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(2)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
To '''edit''' the '''value''' of an individual '''text column cell''', right-click the '''text column cell''' to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''' shown below:
+
In the list of '''page sizes''', the '''arrow''' at the bottom of the list (as shown above) and an '''arrow''' at the top of the list are not '''clickable'''.  Rather you can scroll up and down the list by using your '''keyboard up and down arrow buttons'''.

<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(1)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
===Printer Selection===
−
<!--<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(1)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
After accessing the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''', click the '''Edit text''' command shown above to access the '''Enter text '''form and its '''Enter text''' window that contains the current contents of the selected '''text column cell''' as shown here:
+
The list of '''page size''' selections is determined from your printer selection made in the '''Page Layout''' tab of the '''Chart Properties''' form or the '''Template Properties''' form.  The setting in the '''Chart Properties''' form is shown below:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(2)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-(3)-05142020.png]]</center>

+
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-(3)-05142020.png</center>-->
  
−
To change the contents of the selected '''text column cell''' using the above '''Enter text''' form, type in the desired '''text''' into the '''Enter text '''window and click the '''OK''' button when finished.
+
Whenever you change printers and the new printer has a different list of '''page sizes''', OnePager adopts that list of '''page sizes''' and display them in the '''Printer choice:''' dropdown menu. Making a change to the '''page size''' selection can have an impact on how the pages appear in the '''output media'''.  The appearance can be easily checked by clicking the '''Print Preview''' button.  The position of '''page breaks''' can also change if a change is made to the '''Page Size''' selection.  Accordingly, '''Page Size''' selection is applied to the '''document’s size''' and OnePager fits the chart to '''fit best''' within that '''document size'''. '''Page Size''' selections made with the '''Page Size''' dropdown menu are independent of '''snapshot'''.  That is, a selection made in any '''snapshot''' is applied to all '''snapshots'''.

−
===Editing Multiple Text Column Cells Using the Edit text Form===
+
OnePager has the capability to insert '''page breaks''' automatically depending on a number of factors.  '''Page Breaks''' are displayed in the '''Page Break View mode''' as follows:
  
−
Editing the '''cells''' of multiple '''text columns''' is similar to '''editing''' an individual '''cell''' except that more '''cells''' are selected and the change made in the '''Edit text''' form’s window is applied to all selected '''cells'''. If we select a sequence of '''text column cells''' using the '''SHIFT+Left-Click ''' method to select the '''cells''', right-click in one of the selected '''cells''' to access the '''text column''' right-click '''context menu''', and then click the '''Edit text''' command, the chart looks like this:
+
:* '''Automatic page breaks''' are represented by '''dashed gray lines''' and
 +
:* '''Manual page breaks''' are represented by '''solid gray lines'''.  
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(5)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
The options available under the '''Page Break''' button allow you to:
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(5)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
Changing the '''text''' in the '''Edit text''' window to '''“Started”''' and clicking the '''OK''' button on the form, changes the '''text''' in the selected '''text column cells''' as shown below:
+
:* '''Insert a vertical page break''',
 +
:* '''Insert a horizontal page break''',
 +
:* '''Remove all inserted page breaks''', and  
 +
:* '''Remove all page breaks'''. 
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(6)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
Each of these options are discussed in the three (3) sub-sections that immediately follow.
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(6)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
The same results as shown above can be achieved when individual '''text column cells''' are selected to become a set of multiple '''text column cells''' using the '''CTL+Left-Click''' selection method.
+
===Insert Vertical Page Breaks=== 
  
−
==Editing Swimlane Cells==
+
When the '''Insert vertical page break''' option is selected, OnePager changes the '''cursor''' to a '''plus''', places a '''dark horizontal line''' in the chart that is responsive to the movement of the mouse, and snaps the '''vertical page break''' to the '''nearest row boundary'''.  Upon left-clicking, the '''vertical page break''' is '''inserted''' as shown below:
  
−
1) In the illustrations above for '''editing text column cells''', you are able to select individual '''text column''' or multiple '''text column cells''' and use the '''Edit text''' form to change the selected '''cell values'''. The same process can be used for changing the '''values''' for individual '''swimlane cells''' or multiple '''swimlane cells''' depending on the selection method you use. The examples that follow illustrate how you can change individual and multiple '''swimlane cells''' in the chart.
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(5)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(5)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
===Editing Individual Swimlane Level Cell Labels Using the Edit text Form===
+
After left-clicking, OnePager completes the '''vertical page break insertion''' and the chart looks like this:
  
−
For the purpose of illustration, we’ll use the same OnePager Pro chart below containing three '''swimlane levels''' and two '''text columns''':
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(6)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(6)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_13_1-(17)-07162020.png]]</center>
+
When you '''add''' a '''vertical page break manually''', the integer in the '''Height''' window is increased by one (1). Likewise, when '''add''' a '''horizontal page break manually''', the integer in the '''Width''' window is increased by one (1). Removing '''manual page breaks''' does not decrease these numbers back to their previous values in all cases.  In these situations, you can manually reset these numbers back to their desired values.  '''Note''' that setting these numbers to '''lower values''' can cause some or all of the '''manual or automatic page breaks''' to be '''deleted''', with '''automatic page breaks''' being '''deleted''' first. If the '''Height''' and '''Width''' window settings in the '''Document Fitting''' group of the '''Page Layout''' tab are either or both set to '''Automatic''', OnePager makes changes to the number of '''pages''' in order to retain the '''aspect ratio''' of the document.  An example is provided below, where the '''Height''' and '''Width''' settings are '''Automatic''', the original number of '''pages''' was determined to be four (4) and you inserted a '''vertical page break''' as in the previous example:
−
<!--<center>P70-12_13_1-(17)-07162020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
To '''edit''' the '''value''' of an individual '''swimlane cell''', right-click the '''swimlane cell''' to access the '''context menu''' shown below:
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(7)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(7)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(7)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
Looking at the above chart in '''Print Preview''' view mode, the '''pages''' are configured as shown below:
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(7)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
After accessing the '''context menu''', click the '''Edit swimlane label''' command shown above to access the '''Enter text''' form and its '''Enter text''' window that contains the current contents of the selected '''swimlane cell''' as shown here:
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(8)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(8)-09032019.png</center>-->

+
===Insert Horizontal Page Breaks===
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(8)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
To change the contents of the selected '''swimlane cell''' using the above '''Enter text''' form, type in the desired '''text''' into the '''Enter text '''window and click the '''OK''' button when finished.
+
The procedure and conventions applicable to the '''insertion''' of a '''vertical page break''' applies as well to the '''insertion''' of the '''horizontal page break'''.  When '''inserting''' a '''horizontal page break''', the '''cursor''' is changed to a '''plus''' sign, and a '''vertical line''' is moved from left to right, snapping at smallest '''time unit''' on the '''time axis''' as shown below:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(9)-07222020.png]]</center>

<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(9)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
After clicking '''OK''' on the '''Enter text''' form, the selected '''swimlane cell''' remains selected and the '''text''' in the '''cell''' is changed as shown below:
+
After left-clicking, OnePager completes the '''horizontal page break insertion''' and the chart looks like this:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(10)-07222020.png]]</center>

+
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(10)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
===Editing Multiple Swimlane Cells Using the Edit text Form===
+
When the '''horizontal page break insertion''' action is completed, the resulting chart looks like this in '''Print Preview view mode''':
  
−
Editing the '''values''' of multiple '''swimlane cells''' is similar to '''editing''' an individual '''swimlane cell''' except that more '''cells''' are selected and the change made in the '''Edit text''' form is applied to all selected '''cells'''. If we select a sequence of '''swimlane cells''' using the '''SHIFT+Left-Click '''method to select the '''cells''', right-click in one of the selected '''cells''' to access the '''context menu''', and then click the '''Edit swimlane label''' command, the chart looks like this:
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(11)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(11)-09032019.png</center>-->

+
===Removing Page Breaks===
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(11)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
Changing the contents of the '''Edit text''' window to '''“Planning/Development Team”''' and clicking the '''OK''' button on the form, changes the '''text''' in the selected '''swimlane cells''' as shown below:
+
There are two (2) options available for '''removing page breaks''' from the chart:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(12)-07222020.png]]</center>
+
:* '''Removing all page breaks''' and
−
<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(12)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
:* '''Removing manually inserted page breaks'''.
  
−
The same results as shown above can be achieved when individual '''swimlane cells''' are selected to become a set of multiple '''swimlane cells''' using the '''CTL+Left-Click''' selection method.
+
These options are shown below:
  
−
==Editing Text Column Cells or Swimlane Cells Using the Home Ribbon Tool Bar’s Controls==
+
<center>[[File:P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(12)-09032019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(12)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
When either single or multiple '''text column cells''' or '''swimlane cells''' are selected, they can be '''edited''' in terms of their '''Font properties''' and '''text Alignment''' using the '''Font''' and '''Alignment''' control groups on the OnePager '''Home''' ribbon tool bar tab as shown below:
+
The '''Remove all inserted page breaks''' option '''removes''' all '''manually inserted page breaks''' both '''horizontal''' and '''vertical''' if present in the chart.  '''Removing''' all '''manual page breaks''' by this method can still leave some '''automatic page breaks''' depending on the '''document size''' and how the '''automatic page number''' selections are made for the '''Width''' and '''Height''' values. The '''Remove all page breaks''' option '''removes all manual page breaks''' previously '''inserted''' as well as '''all automatically inserted page breaks'''. The '''values''' for the '''Width''' and '''Height''' are reset back to one (1). The '''Chart Editor''' remains in '''Page Break view mode''' after either of these two options are exercised in the chart.

<!--<center> P70-12_3_1-(13)-07222020.png</center>-->
+
  
−
Whenever you select a single or multiple '''cell''', the two control groups above are '''enabled''' and you can use any of the controls shown above to '''edit''' the '''text''' in the selected '''cell or cells'''.
+
You can change in the location of '''page breaks''' by using the mouse to '''drag and drop''' them. This is done by first moving the mouse over the '''page break''' where it changes shape to a '''double-pointed arrow''' as shown below:

−
Using the '''edited''' multiple '''swimlane cells''' from the previous sub-section above as an example, we can decrease the '''font size''' of the selected '''cells''' as shown below:
+
With the '''double-pointed arrow''' positioned over the '''page break''', hold down the mouse left-click button and move the selected '''horizontal page break''' to the '''left or right''' or move the selected '''vertical page break''' '''up or down''' as shown here for the '''horizontal page break''' selected in the illustration above:
  
−

+
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(14)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
Once the desired '''text column cells''' or '''swimlane cells''' are selected, you can use the '''Font''' control group’s buttons to '''edit''' the '''value''' to '''Bold''', ''Italics'', or [[Underline]]; increase or decrease the '''font size'''; or access the standard '''Color Chooser''' form and change the '''color''' of the '''label''' itself.  When there are multiple '''text column cells''' or '''swimlane cells''' selected, the '''edit''' is applied to all selected '''text'''.
+
When the left-click mouse button is released, the the cursor returns to its '''normal shape''' and the '''page break''' is snapped into the closest position consistent with the type of '''page break''' as shown below for a '''horizontal page break''':
  
−
Additionally, you can change the '''font type''' and its '''size''' by using the dropdown windows appearing above the six buttons in the control group. All these '''font properties''' are available in the '''Font properties''' form accesses by selecting a task bar/milestone symbol '''text''', time axis cell '''text''', or text within '''comment boxes''' as just a few examples.
+

<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(15)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
Any '''edits''' made to '''cell labels''' using the '''Home '''ribbon tool bar tab’s controls are applied to all selected '''text'''. The methodology described above applies as well to '''editing''' the '''Font properties '''of '''text column cell labels'''.
+
'''Page Break View mode''' is the only '''mode''' in which you can interact with '''page breaks''' on the screen.
  
−
===Editing Alignment Properties of Text Column Cell Labels or Swimlane Level Cell Labels===
+
==Changing the Number of Pages for Width and Height==
  
−
As mentioned, when a '''text column cell''' or '''swimlane cell''' is selected, the '''Alignment '''control group on the '''Home '''ribbon tool bar tab is '''enabled''' so you can change the '''position''' of the '''text''' within the selected '''cell'''. If we continue with the example from the previous sub-section, we can change the '''position''' of all the selected '''text''' to '''vertically centered''' and '''horizontally centered''' in their respective '''cells''' by clicking the '''two center buttons''' in each row of the '''Alignment '''control group as shown here:
+
You can also change the number of '''pages''' desired in the '''vertical''' and '''horizontal''' directions by '''manually changing''' the numeric values in the '''Document Fitting''' control group's '''Width''' and/or '''Height''' value widows and illustrated below for the '''Width''' window:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-12_3_1-(15)-07222020.png]]</center>

+
<!--<center>P70-8_6_1_2_1-70-(16)-09032019.png</center>-->
  
−
All the '''swimlane cells''' selected in the chart above are '''repositioned''' so that their '''text''' is '''positioned '''in the '''center vertically and horizontally''' within the '''cell'''.
+
Accessing either the '''Width''' or the '''Height''' windows displays the '''page number options'''.  Making a selection with your mouse immediately changes the '''page number''' setting and the '''Chart Editor''' is updated to show the '''automatic page breaks''' created as a result of the action. For more information concerning the use of the controls in the '''Document Fitting''' control group of the '''Page Layout''' tab, please see this article:  [[Document Fitting for Version 7.2 | Document Fitting]] 8.6.1.2.2-72

About Page Setup

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

The Page Setup control group on the Page Layout ribbon tool bar tab provides two (2) controls for:

  • Selecting from different Page size (e.g., letter, legal, A4, etc.) and
  • Inserting manual page breaks when in Page Break View mode.

The Page Setup control group on the Page Layout ribbon tool bar tab looks like this:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(1)-09032019.png

Each of these controls are described in the sub-sections below.

Page Size Setup

Page Size Selection

The Page Size button is active in all View modes. Clicking the Page Size button accesses the Page Size dropdown menu where you can change the selection of the output page product size. The Page Size dropdown menu looks like this:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(2)-09032019.png

In the list of page sizes, the arrow at the bottom of the list (as shown above) and an arrow at the top of the list are not clickable. Rather you can scroll up and down the list by using your keyboard up and down arrow buttons.

Printer Selection

The list of page size selections is determined from your printer selection made in the Page Layout tab of the Chart Properties form or the Template Properties form. The setting in the Chart Properties form is shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-(3)-05142020.png

Whenever you change printers and the new printer has a different list of page sizes, OnePager adopts that list of page sizes and display them in the Printer choice: dropdown menu. Making a change to the page size selection can have an impact on how the pages appear in the output media. The appearance can be easily checked by clicking the Print Preview button. The position of page breaks can also change if a change is made to the Page Size selection. Accordingly, Page Size selection is applied to the document’s size and OnePager fits the chart to fit best within that document size. Page Size selections made with the Page Size dropdown menu are independent of snapshot. That is, a selection made in any snapshot is applied to all snapshots.

Page Breaks

OnePager supports both Vertical and Horizontal Page Breaks. The Page Break button on the Page Layout ribbon tool bar tab accesses the Page Break control options shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(4)-09032019.png

OnePager has the capability to insert page breaks automatically depending on a number of factors. Page Breaks are displayed in the Page Break View mode as follows:

  • Automatic page breaks are represented by dashed gray lines and
  • Manual page breaks are represented by solid gray lines.

The options available under the Page Break button allow you to:

  • Insert a vertical page break,
  • Insert a horizontal page break,
  • Remove all inserted page breaks, and
  • Remove all page breaks.

Each of these options are discussed in the three (3) sub-sections that immediately follow.

Insert Vertical Page Breaks

When the Insert vertical page break option is selected, OnePager changes the cursor to a plus, places a dark horizontal line in the chart that is responsive to the movement of the mouse, and snaps the vertical page break to the nearest row boundary. Upon left-clicking, the vertical page break is inserted as shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(5)-09032019.png

After left-clicking, OnePager completes the vertical page break insertion and the chart looks like this:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(6)-09032019.png

When you add a vertical page break manually, the integer in the Height window is increased by one (1). Likewise, when add a horizontal page break manually, the integer in the Width window is increased by one (1). Removing manual page breaks does not decrease these numbers back to their previous values in all cases. In these situations, you can manually reset these numbers back to their desired values. Note that setting these numbers to lower values can cause some or all of the manual or automatic page breaks to be deleted, with automatic page breaks being deleted first. If the Height and Width window settings in the Document Fitting group of the Page Layout tab are either or both set to Automatic, OnePager makes changes to the number of pages in order to retain the aspect ratio of the document. An example is provided below, where the Height and Width settings are Automatic, the original number of pages was determined to be four (4) and you inserted a vertical page break as in the previous example:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(7)-09032019.png

Looking at the above chart in Print Preview view mode, the pages are configured as shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(8)-09032019.png

Insert Horizontal Page Breaks

The procedure and conventions applicable to the insertion of a vertical page break applies as well to the insertion of the horizontal page break. When inserting a horizontal page break, the cursor is changed to a plus sign, and a vertical line is moved from left to right, snapping at smallest time unit on the time axis as shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(9)-09032019.png

After left-clicking, OnePager completes the horizontal page break insertion and the chart looks like this:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(10)-09032019.png

When the horizontal page break insertion action is completed, the resulting chart looks like this in Print Preview view mode:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(11)-09032019.png

Removing Page Breaks

There are two (2) options available for removing page breaks from the chart:

  • Removing all page breaks and
  • Removing manually inserted page breaks.

These options are shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(12)-09032019.png

The Remove all inserted page breaks option removes all manually inserted page breaks both horizontal and vertical if present in the chart. Removing all manual page breaks by this method can still leave some automatic page breaks depending on the document size and how the automatic page number selections are made for the Width and Height values. The Remove all page breaks option removes all manual page breaks previously inserted as well as all automatically inserted page breaks. The values for the Width and Height are reset back to one (1). The Chart Editor remains in Page Break view mode after either of these two options are exercised in the chart.

Moving a Vertical or Horizontal Page Break

You can change in the location of page breaks by using the mouse to drag and drop them. This is done by first moving the mouse over the page break where it changes shape to a double-pointed arrow as shown below:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(13)-09032019.png

With the double-pointed arrow positioned over the page break, hold down the mouse left-click button and move the selected horizontal page break to the left or right or move the selected vertical page break up or down as shown here for the horizontal page break selected in the illustration above:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(14)-09032019.png

When the left-click mouse button is released, the the cursor returns to its normal shape and the page break is snapped into the closest position consistent with the type of page break as shown below for a horizontal page break:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(15)-09032019.png

Page Break View mode is the only mode in which you can interact with page breaks on the screen.

Changing the Number of Pages for Width and Height

You can also change the number of pages desired in the vertical and horizontal directions by manually changing the numeric values in the Document Fitting control group's Width and/or Height value widows and illustrated below for the Width window:

P70-8 6 1 2 1-70-(16)-09032019.png

Accessing either the Width or the Height windows displays the page number options. Making a selection with your mouse immediately changes the page number setting and the Chart Editor is updated to show the automatic page breaks created as a result of the action. For more information concerning the use of the controls in the Document Fitting control group of the Page Layout tab, please see this article: Document Fitting 8.6.1.2.2-72

The capability to insert manual vertical and horizontal page breaks, in combination with the Page Size dropdown lists, provides extremely fine control over the final output media whether that output media is destine for a printer, is copied to some other application, or rendered as an image.

Copying Pages to the Clipboard

In a multi-page chart you have options available to copy the chart or portions of the chart to the Windows clipboard. The three (3) options available are:

  • Copy an entire document to the Windows clipboard,
  • Copy the current page (where the current page is the last clicked page in a multi-page chart, or to
  • Copy a specific page number.

These features are explained in the article and section at this link: Copy & Paste 23.2.2.1-71
