| − | ==Editing Global or Individual Task Link Properties and the Chart==
| |
| | | | |
| − | There are five (5) situations where making an '''edit''' in OnePager to the '''Data-driven Task Link '''environment precipitates a change in the chart and can impact all snapshots. These are covered below in the next sub-sections.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Situation 1: Turning the Data-Driven Task Link Feature ON or OFF===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This change is made in the''' “Master” '''checkbox that turns the '''Data-driven Task Link '''feature '''ON''' or '''OFF '''in the '''Chart Properties''' form’s '''Task Link''' tab. '''Turning the Data-Driven Task Link Feature from ON to OFF''': When this change is made, all '''Data-driven Task Links '''are '''hidden''' in all snapshots. Manual '''Task Links''' are not impacted.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Turning the Data-Driven Task Link Feature from OFF to ON''':
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :1) If there are '''imported''' '''Data-driven Task Links''', they are '''shown '''in all snapshots if they are not '''mavericks '''to be '''hidden'''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :2) If there are no '''imported''' '''Data-driven Task Links''' because the feature was previously '''OFF''', OnePager goes out to the '''source plan '''and '''imports''' all '''Data-driven Task Links''' and '''shows''' them in every snapshot where the '''Task Link Filter rules '''are met.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Situation 2: Editing the OnePager Express Predecessor Field Mapping in its Chart Properties form===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If you change the '''predecessor field mapping '''in OnePager Express, after OnePager Express '''creates''' the chart, the software discards all '''Data-driven Task Links''' and goes back to the Microsoft Excel '''source plan''' and '''imports''' the '''Data-driven Task Link '''information''' '''from the new designated Microsoft Excel '''field'''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Situation 3: Editing the OnePager Express Predecessor Syntax Format Selection===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The dropdown menu selection in the '''Syntax''' '''Format''' '''selector''' of the OnePager Express '''Chart Properties '''form’s '''Task Links '''tab’s '''Data-Driven Task Links '''control group is shown below before any '''Data-driven Task Link''' information is '''imported'''.

| − | <!--<center>P70-19_7_1-70-(1)-10012020.png</center>-->
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This '''edit''' can be made at any time. If you make the '''edit''' in OnePager Express, the software discards all '''Data-driven Task Link '''information and goes back to the Microsoft Excel '''source plan''' and '''imports''' the '''Data-driven Task Link '''information''' '''using the new designated '''Syntax Format selector'''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Situation 4: Change the Filter Links Sub-Group Control===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This situation arises when you change the radio button selection in the '''Filter Links''' control sub-group of the '''Data-Driven Task Links''' control group in the '''Chart Properties''' form’s '''Task Link '''tab as shown below:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <center>[[File:P70-19_3_1-70-(1)-10012020.png]]</center>
| |
| − | <!--<center>P70-19_3_1-70-(1)-10012020.png</center>-->
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There are two (2) possible changes that can be made.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ====From Show All to Use Rules:====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | OnePager configures the '''Chart Editor '''to '''show''' every '''Data-driven Task Link''' that satisfies the '''Task Link Filter rules''' established in the '''Task Link Filter Rules''' form unless the '''Task Link''' is a '''maverick''' and '''hidden'''. Any '''Task Link''' that does '''NOT''' satisfy the established''' Task Link Filter rules''' is '''hidden''' unless the '''Task Link '''is a '''maverick '''to be '''shown'''. When the change from '''Show all''' to '''Use Rules''' is made, OnePager reexamines all the '''Data-driven Task Links''' '''imported''' and assures that the '''Data-driven Task Links''' that '''show''' comply with the current '''Task Link Filter rules'''. '''Data-driven Task Links''' that do not comply with the current '''Task Link Filter rules '''are '''hidden'''.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ====From Use Rules to Show All:====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | OnePager configures the '''Chart Editor''' to ensure that '''all''' '''Data-driven''' '''Task Links''' '''imported '''from the '''source plan''' are '''shown''' when the '''Show all''' radio button is selected. Any '''Data-driven Task Links '''that are '''show/hide mavericks '''are not changed thus preserving their '''maverick''' '''show/hide''' '''status'''. If '''Data-driven Task Links''' are not otherwise '''mavericks''', OnePager generates new '''Data-driven Task Links '''from the '''source plan’s''' '''Data-driven Task Link''' information using the current '''Task Link '''property settings.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===Situation 5: Change any of the Task Link Filter Rules===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This situation corresponds to clicking the '''Manage Rules …''' button in the '''Data-Driven Task Links''' control group in the '''Chart Properties''' form’s '''Task Link''' tab and doing a '''add, edit, or delete''' on a '''Task Link Filter rule''' in the '''Task Link Filter Rules''' form. When an '''edit''' is made to a '''Task Link Filter rule''', OnePager Pro and Express configures the '''Chart Editor '''to show every '''Data-driven Task Link''' that satisfies the new '''Task Link Filter rules''' in the '''Task Link Filter Rules''' form unless the '''Data-driven Task Link''' is a '''maverick''' and '''hidden'''. Any '''Data-driven Task Link''' that does '''NOT''' satisfy the new''' Task Link Filter rules''' is '''hidden''' unless the '''Data-driven Task Link '''is a '''maverick''' to be '''shown'''. If this situation is encountered it can change which '''Task Link Filter rules''' apply at each snapshot but preserves the '''show/hide''' '''mavericks''' and '''mavericks''' of other '''Data-driven Task Link '''properties. If an existing '''Data-driven Task Link''' does not satisfy the new '''Task Link Filter rules''' set and is not a '''maverick''' to be '''shown''' or '''hidden''', the '''Data-driven Task Link''' is completely discarded and all of its '''maverick''' properties are lost.

| − | ==Saving OnePager Pro/Express Charts to Previous Versions==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As with previous releases of OnePager Pro and Express you have the option to '''save''' charts (i.e., '''.TAM''' files) to previous versions. To '''save''' a chart to a previous OnePager version, go to the OnePager '''File''' ribbon tool bar tab and click the '''Save as '''tab which accesses the '''Save as chart''' window.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Click the '''Save as type:''' dropdown and you’ll see the options as shown below:

| |
| − | <!--<center>P70-19_1_1-70-(27)-09292020.png</center>-->
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When '''saving''' a chart with '''Data-driven Task Links''', it should be recognized that the '''Data-driven Task Link''' information is '''lost''' when the chart is saved to version 6.0 or earlier version of OnePager and subsequently opened.
| |
| − | Manual '''Task Links''', however, are converted to '''Event Links''' which are compatible with previous versions.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Manual '''Task Links''' converted to '''Event Links''' retain manual '''Task Link '''properties including '''connection line color''', '''Dash type''', and '''font '''properties.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | All other properties of manual '''Task Links''' converted to '''Event Links''' are lost.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Enhancements made to manual '''Task Links''' like '''Begin '''and '''End point shapes''' and '''connection line Dash types''' are lost when '''saving''' to a previous version from version 7.1.

| |
| − | ===Opening Previous Versions of OnePager using OnePager 7.1===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Opening a chart created with OnePager versions '''previous''' to version 6.1 with OnePager 7.1 provides a chart where only previously inserted '''Event Links''', if any, are converted to manual '''Task Links'''. If a chart is being opened but was originally created with OnePager 7.1 and '''saved''' as a previous version, '''no''' '''Data-driven Task Links''' are available to be '''shown'''. If you open a '''previous''' version of a chart and subsequently '''update''' the chart using OnePager 7.1 with a '''source plan''' that contains '''Predecessor/Successor''' information, OnePager 7.1 imports this '''Dependency''' information if the '''update '''method is''' Replace All Properties'''. Subsequent to the '''update''', the chart is able to '''show Data-driven Task Links'''. Any '''Event Links''' present in the previous version of the chart being opened with OnePager 7.1 '''shows''' these '''links''' as manual '''Task Links'''.
