About Moving Swimlanes in the Chart

1) As it is with rows, for some schedule presentations the order of swimlanes in the chart done by OnePager may not be totally sufficient to meet your needs.

2) Swimlanes can be manually moved up and down in the chart by selecting the appropriate swimlane level cell of the desired swimlane and, once selected, using the mouse drag and drop method on the selected swimlane to place it in the desired position.

3) OnePager provides assistance by highlighting the selected swimlane first and as the selected swimlane is dragged up or down providing a red line with a pointer to tell you where the dragged swimlane is to be dropped (placed at the end of the operation.

4) Finally, releasing the mouse left-click button causes OnePager to place the selected swimlane in the designed or dropped position.

5) You must have at least one swimlane level showing in the chart so that you have a swimlane level cell to use in the procedure described above.

6) Only one swimlane can be moved at a time. To move two or more swimlanes to new positions, the operations must be done separately.

7) Moving a swimlane moves all the rows that are members of that swimlane.

8) If there are multiple swimlane levels showing in the chart, selecting a higher level swimlane to move when there are lower level swimlanes as members also moves these lower level swimlanes.

9) The Left#1 swimlane level is considered the highest level swimlane because it appears furthest to the left in the chart. When all three swimlane levels are present in the chart, the hierarchy is Left#1, Left#2, and Left#3 as shown here:

P70-12_10_1-(1)_07102020.png

10) The examples provide below demonstrates this hierarchy.

11) Swimlanes can be moved within a swimlane level or moved between swimlane levels.

12) Moving a swimlane makes the swimlane into a row maverick.

Moving Swimlanes In the Chart - Example

1) For this example, only a single swimlane level is used to demonstrate the basic process.

Selecting a Swimlane to Move

2) To move a swimlane, select the desired swimlane by clicking in its swimlane level cells as shown below:

P70-12_10_1-(2)-07102020.png

2) You can also select the swimlane by using the double-left-click to highlight the swimlane's label cell as shown here:

P70-12_10_1-(3)-07102020.png

3) With the swimlane selected, movement of the mouse up or down causes OnePager to show a highlight red line indicating the direction the mouse is moving and where the selected swimlane will be placed if the mouse left-click button is released.

Moving a Swimlane Down

4) Below is an example where a swimlane is selected and the mouse is moved slightly down:

P70-12_10_1-(4)-07102020.png

5) If the mouse with the left-click button held down is moved down further the highlighted red line moves with it and indicated where the selected swimlane will be placed if the mouse left-click button were released at that position as shown here:

P70-12_10_1-(5)-07102020.png

6) When the mouse left-click button is released in the position shown above, OnePager moves the selected swimlane to that position as shown below:

P70-12 10 1-(6)-07102020.png
P70-12_10_1-(6)-07102020.png

7) In the example above there is only the Left#1 swimlane level present in the chart. As a result, moving a swimlane up or down in a single swimlane level chart results in placing it: (1) between other Left#1 swimlanes, (2) between the top most swimlane and the chart's top frame, or (3) between the bottom most swimlane and the chart's bottom frame. In the single swimlane level chart, the ends of the highlighted red line or key resembles a T on its side.

8) When there are multiple swimlane levels present in the chart the highlighted red line and its key becomes more important as discussed below.

Interpretation of the Key on the Highlighted Red Line

7) The key displayed on the left side of the highlighted red line can point up as shown above or down or in both directions.

Key Points Down

8) When the key points down the selected row is positioned below the highlighted red line as shown in the sequence of two illustrations that follow:

P70-12 9 1-(7)-07092020.png

Key Points Up

9) The first example above shows where the selected row is positioned when the key points up.

Key Points Up and Down

10) The key can indicate that the selected row will be positioned on the highlighted red line as shown in the sequence of two illustrations that follow:
