About Page Setup
1) The Page Setup group on the Page Layout tab provides two controls for:
- (1) Selecting from different Page size (e.g., letter, legal, A4, etc.) and
- (2) Inserting manual page breaks when in Page Break view mode.
2) The Page Setup group on the Page Layout tab looks like this:
-09032019.png)
3) Each of these controls are described in the subsections below.
Page Size Setup
Page Size Selection
1) The Page Size button is active in all viewing modes.
2) Clicking the Page Size button accesses the Page Size dropdown menu where you can change the selection of the output page product size.
3) The Page Size dropdown menu looks like this:
-09032019.png)
- a) 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.
- b) Rather you can scroll up and down the list by using your keyboard up and down arrow buttons.
Printer Selection
4) 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:
- a) 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.
- b) Making a change to the page size selection can have an impact on how the pages appear in the output.
- c) The appearance can be easily checked by clicking the Print Preview button.
- d) The position of page breaks can also change if a change is made to the Page Size selection.
- e) Accordingly, page size selection is applied to the document’s size and OnePager fits the chart to fit best within that document size.
5) 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
1) OnePager supports both vertical and horizontal page breaks.
2) The Page Break button on the Page Layout tab accesses the Page Break control options shown below:
-09032019.png)
3) OnePager has the capability to insert page breaks automatically depending on a number of factors.
4) Page Breaks are displayed in the Page Break view mode as follows:
- a) Automatic page breaks are represented by dashed gray lines and
- b) Manual page breaks are represented by solid gray lines.
5) The options available under the Page Break' button allow you to:
- (1) Insert a horizontal page break,
- (2) Insert a vertical page break,
- (3) Remove all inserted page breaks, and
- (4) Remove all page breaks.
Insert Vertical Page Breaks
6) 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.
7) Upon left clicking, the vertical page break is inserted as shown below:
-09032019.png)
8) After left clicking, OnePager completes the vertical page break insertion and the chart looks like this:
-09032019.png)
9) When you add a vertical page break manually, the integer in the Height window is increased by one (1).
10) Likewise, when add a horizontal page break manually, the integer in the Width window is increased by one (1).
11) Removing manual page breaks does not decrease these numbers back to their previous values in all cases.
- a) In these situations, you can manually set these numbers back to their desired values.
- b) 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.
12) 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.
13) 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:
-09032019.png)
14) Looking at the above chart in Print Preview view mode, the pages are configured as shown below:
-09032019.png)
Insert Horizontal Page Breaks
15) The procedure and conventions applicable to the insertion of a vertical page break applies as well to the insertion of the horizontal page break.
16) 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:
-09032019.png)
17) After left clicking, OnePager completes the horizontal page break insertion and the chart looks like this:
-09032019.png)
18) When the horizontal page break insertion action is completed, the resulting chart looks like this in Print Preview view mode:
-09032019.png)
Removing Page Breaks
19) There are two (2) options available for removing page breaks from the chart:
- (1) Removing all page breaks and
- (2) Removing manually inserted page breaks.
20) These options are shown below:
-09032019.png)
21) The Remove all inserted page breaks option removes all manually inserted page breaks both horizontal and vertical if present in the chart.
22) 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.
23) The Remove all page breaks option removes all manual page breaks previously inserted as well as all automatically inserted page breaks.
24) The values for the Width and Height are reset back to one (1).
25) 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
26) You can change in the location of page breaks by dragging them.
- a) This is done by first moving the mouse over the page break where it changes shape to a double-pointed arrow as shown below:
-09032019.png)
- b) With the double-pointed arrow positioned over the page break, hold down the left-click button on the mouse and you can 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:
-09032019.png)
- c) When the left-click mouse button is released the the cursor returns to its normal shape and the page break is snapped into the closes position consistent with the type of page break as shown below for a horizontal page break:
-09032019.png)
You can also change the number of pages desired in the vertical and horizontal directions.
20) This, in combination with the Page Size dropdown, provides extremely fine control over the final output whether that output goes to a printer, is copied to some other application, or rendered as an image.
21) Manual and automatic page breaks can be moved by hovering the cursor over the desired page break.
- a) When this is done the cursor changes to the double arrow and can be dragged with the left mouse button.
- b) Once the left mouse button is released, the selected page break snaps to the nearest appropriate boundary.
22) Page Break view mode is the only mode in which you can interact with page breaks on the screen.
Copying Pages to the Clipboard
Although this feature is explained elsewhere (See the article at this link: Sharing via Other Applications (e.g., PowerPoint) 23.2.2.1-70, it is important to note that you have the option to
- (1) Copy an entire document to the Windows clipboard,
- (2) Copy the current page (where the current page is the last clicked page in a multi-page chart, or to
- (3) Copy a specific page number.
