'''Clip task/milestone labels at graph edges''' When this checkbox is checked '''ON''' in either the '''Advanced''' tab of the '''PVP''' form or '''Template Properties''' form, OnePager clips the task/milestone '''label''' on the left if rows/swimlanes are displayed and on the right if the task/milestone '''labels''' extend beyond the right edge of the graph area.
+
 
+
'''Clutter Reduction''' The process using '''Task Link Filtering '''to reduce the number of '''Data-Driven Task Links''' being '''shown '''in the project view or snapshot so as to focus attention on those '''Data-Driven Task Links''' that best contribute to supporting the user’s schedule conversation presentation.

+
 
+
'''Manual Editing of Task Links''' All '''Task Links''' '''shown''' in the project view can be selected and manually '''edited'''.  The '''edits''' include using the right-clicking to access the '''Task Link''' '''context menu''' to select appropriate '''Task Link''' '''editing''' commands and accessing and using the '''Task Link Properties form''' to '''maverick''' one or all of the properties of the selected '''Task Link'''.

+
'''.TAP''' A file type for saving or sharing color palettes with other OnePager users.
+
 
+
'''Task Link (aka Event Link)''' An '''editable''' connector showing that two tasks/milestones are '''linked''' to each other. Typically this shows that one of them depends upon the other in some way. The '''Task Link''' can display text that describes the '''link''' and can be configured with respect to line thickness, color, and other properties.  '''Task Links''' can be '''Data-Driven''' or '''individually manually created'''.
