OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Tabs for Version 7.2 (P72-4_0_2_2-72-09062022.docx)

About the OnePager Editor’s Ribbon Tool Bar Tab

Every Windows application has a tool bar at the top of the screen and OnePager is no exception. The purpose of this article is to describe the OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar tab, each tab’s sub-sections, and the functions available to you on each.

Illustrations used or referenced 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, Oracle Primavera P6, Smartsheet, and Planisware.

Overview

When OnePager open’s with a chart made from a source plan, the screen looks like this:

[[image:|624x440px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(1)-08222022.png

For a complete description of the components of a OnePager chart, please see the article at:

Anatomy of a OnePager Chart 6.0.1-72

As shown in the illustration above, the OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar has six (6) tabs to the right of four controls for Save, UNDO, REDO, Help. When the chart is created, the Home tab is displayed initially as this tab is the most often used to perform editing operations in the chart. These six (6) tabs and the four (4) other controls are described in detail in the articles at the links provided below starting with the Home tab then going from left to right ending with the View tab followed by the File page:

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Home Tab 4.0.2.2.1-72

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Insert Tab 4.0.2.2.3-72

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Page Layout Tab 4.0.2.2.5-72

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar File Page 4.0.2.2.11-72

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Supporting Controls 4.0.2.2.13-72

(4.0.2.2 -72)

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Home Tab

The OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar Home tab is shown in detail below:

[[image:|624x91px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(2)-08222022.png

The Home tab has six (6) sub-sections as shown above. The first two sub-sections, Editing and Settings, for the most part contain controls that apply to the entire chart while the remaining four (4) sub-sections are enabled whenever a task bar/milestone symbol or text component is selected in the graph. Each sub-section is discussed below.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section

There are five (5) controls in this sub-section. Three (3) are always enabled (i.e., Copy, Show/Hide, and Select All). The Representation control is enabled whenever a task bar/milestone symbol is selected in the graph. The Hide Rows control is enabled whenever at least one row is empty of task bars or milestone symbols.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section – Copy Dropdown

The Copy dropdown control applies to the copying the graph to the Windows clipboard from which the chart may be pasted into other applications as desired. The Copy dropdown has three (3) options as shown here:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML15354e29.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(3)-08222022.png

Clicking the Copy dropdown accesses the dropdown menu shown above which has three (3) option controls:

• Entire document – Copy the entire document area to the Windows clipboard. The document area is defined in the Glossary and is illustrated below:

P70-28 0 1-70-(1)-12032020.png P70-28_0_1-70-(1)-12032020.png

If the chart is multi-page, all pages are copied to the Windows clipboard.

• Current Page (page n) – The copy current page option places the page currently displayed in the Chart editor into the Windows clipboard. The page number shown in parentheses shows which page of the multi-page chart is showing and is about to be placed in the Windows clipboard.

• Specific page … - Clicking on the Specific page… option accesses the Choose page form where there is roller control available for you to select the specific page you wish to place in the Windows clipboard as shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1540c7e7.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(4)-08222022.png

The default page number displayed is “1” and the maximum number available is the highest numbered page available from the multi-page chart. Upon making your selection, click OK to complete the action which closes the form.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section – Representation Dropdown

For the Representation dropdown to be enabled you must select one or more task bar/milestone symbols and/or one or more task bar/milestone symbol names. When enabled the Representation dropdown has four (4) options as shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML154a63fc.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(5)-08222022.png

• Gantt bar – Selecting the Gantt bar option, changes the selected task bar/milestone symbol into a Gantt bar configuration. This option selection is effective only in the case where the selected milestone symbol is associated with a start-finish date duration of greater than one day. Attempting to change a milestone symbol where the start and finish dates are the same is a null operation.

• Milestone at start – When the Milestone at start option is selected for a task bar; the task bar is changed to a milestone symbol positioned in the chart at the original task bar’s start date.

• Milestone at finish - When the Milestone at finish option is selected for a task bar; the task bar is changed to a milestone symbol positioned in the chart at the original task bar’s finish date.

• Use default – Selecting the Use default option has an effect dependent on the setting established in the Template Properties form’s Advanced tab’s Task representation sub-control group. For most Template Properties form’s distributed with OnePager, the default setting is the Gantt bar.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section – Show/Hide Dropdown

The Show/Hide dropdown contains seven (7) commands of which the first five (5) are disabled until an action is taken in the chart to enable them. The bottom two (2) commands can be clicked when you need access to either of the two (2) forms for which the commands are named. The Show/Hide dropdown list is shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1e504bfc.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(6)-08242022.pn

The actions needed to enable the top five commands and the forms accessed using the bottom two commands are discussed below:

• Hide Task/Milestone – This command is used to hide a selected task bar/milestone symbol in the chart. The command is enabled whenever a task bar or bars are selected. Clicking the Hide Tasks/Milestone command when enabled hides the selected a task bar/milestone symbol or symbols.

• Show All Tasks/Milestones – The Show All Tasks/Milestones is enabled only when one (1) or more task bars or milestone symbols are hidden in the chart. Clicking the command unhides all hidden task bars and milestone symbols except where rows are hidden.

• Show All Rows – This command is enabled when one (1) or more rows are hidden in the chart. Clicking this command unhides all hidden rows and any task bars or milestone symbols in the unhidden row or rows.

• Show All Swimlanes – The Show All Swimlanes command is enabled whenever one (1) or more swimlanes are hidden. Clicking this command unhides all hidden swimlanes, their component rows, and any task bars or milestone symbols.

• Show All Time Axis Cells – This command is enabled whenever a time axis cell at any level or levels is hidden in the time axis component of the chart. Clicking the Show All Time Axis Cells unhides these hidden cells and restores them to their last unhidden configuration.

• Where’s My Stuff?! – This command accesses the Where’s My Stuff?! form and places it on top of the Chart Editor. The Where’s My Stuff?! form is useful for determining why a task bar or milestone symbol is hidden in the chart. Clicking the Where’s My Stuff?! command accesses the form and each grid row in the form identifies a hidden task bar or milestone symbol and shows why the component is hidden. The Where’s My Stuff?! form is always accessible even when no components of the chart are hidden.

• Where Are My Links? – The Where Are My Links? command access the Where Are My Links? form which keeps track of manual and Data-Driven task links that are hidden. When accessed, each grid row in the form identifies task links between two (2) task bars or milestone symbols that are hidden. The form can be accessed when manual and/or Data-Driven task links are not imported or when none are hidden.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section – Hide Rows Button

The Hide Rows Button is enabled whenever a row has hidden task bar/milestone symbols. The purpose of the Hide Rows Button is to provide you with options to select on how rows with hidden task bar/milestone symbols should be handled. When there is at least one (1) empty row and you click the Hide Rows button, the Row hiding choices form is accessed as shown here:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1ede8365.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(6A)-08242022.png

The Row hiding choices form provides information on the number of rows hidden in each of the three (3) chart regions shown with the checkboxes and, using the checkboxes, you can specify where empty rows should be hidden.

Home Tab – Editing Sub-Section – Select All Dropdown

The Select All dropdown is always enabled and is used to make chart-wide selections of chart components including task bars/milestone symbols, comment boxes, task links, free shapes, curtains, and images. The Select All dropdown is useful for setting up editing of all of a type of component in the entire chart. The Select All dropdown list is shown here:

[[image:]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(7)-08242022.png

Each of the six (6) commands in the Select All dropdown list is discussed below:

• Task/Milestones – The Tasks/Milestones command selects all task bars/milestone symbols in the chart. When the Select associated text checkbox is checked ON, clicking the Tasks/Milestones command also selects all task bar/milestone symbol name labels as well. The Select associated text checkbox is located in the Advanced tab of the Template Properties and Chart Properties form in the Display options sub-control group.

• Comment Boxes – This command selects all Comment boxes shown in the chart. If there are no Comment boxes in the chart, the command is ignored.

• Task Links – The Task Links command, when clicked, selects all showing manual and Data-Driven task links. Hidden task links are ignored. If there are no manual or Data-Driven task links defined or imported in the chart, the command is ignored.

• Free Shapes - This command selects all Free Shapes shown in the chart. If there are no Free Shapes in the chart, the command is ignored.

• Curtains - This command selects all Curtains shown in the chart. If there are no Curtains in the chart, the command is ignored.

• Images - This command selects all Inserted Images shown in the chart. If there are no Inserted Images in the chart, the command is ignored.

Home Tab – Settings Sub-Section

There are two (2) buttons in this sub-section. The Chart Properties and Save as Template buttons are always enabled. The Home tab – Settings Sub-Section is shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1e8f7481.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(8)-08242022.png

The two (2) buttons are discussed below:

• Chart Properties – Clicking the Chart Properties button accesses the Chart Properties form either at the Main tab of the form if the access is the first access after the chart is created or opened or at the last tab accessed if the form was accessed previously. The Chart Properties form consists of twelve (12) tabs and is used for making global edits to the chart and its components.

• Save as Template – This button can be used to create a Template Properties form from the current Chart Properties form. This created Template Properties form can be used to configure other charts or to share with other colleagues. When clicked, OnePager opens an Export Chronicle Graphics template (.tat) file form which is used to specify the file name of the Template Properties form you are creating. The initial file name for the saved created Template Properties form is the same as the file name of the chart as shown here:

[[image:|501x326px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(9)-08242022.png

Home Tab – Font Sub-Section

The Font sub-section contains controls for making global edits to text components in the chart. There are three (3) dropdown controls and five (5) button controls as shown here:

[[image:|624x139px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(10)-08242022.png

Home Tab – Font Sub-Section – Dropdown Controls

The two (2) dropdown controls are discussed below:

• Font type dropdown – The Font type dropdown contains a list of font types available on your computer as shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1eaaf47b.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(11)-08242022.png

The Font type dropdown is enabled whenever a text component is selected in the chart. When no text component selections are made, the Font type window shown above is blank.

• Font size dropdown – The Font size dropdown, like the Font type dropdown, is enabled whenever a text component is selected in the chart and shows a list of available font sizes that can be selected as shown here:

[[image:]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(12)-08242022.png

In addition to the list of available Font sizes, the Font size window, shown above, can be itself selected and a font size value can be typed in. When no text component selections are made, the Font size window shown above is blank.

Home Tab – Font Sub-Section – Button Controls

There are three (3) sets of button controls for editing selected text in the chart as follows:

• b, I, u Buttons – These three (3) buttons are enabled whenever a text component is selected in the chart. Clicking the “b” button changes the selected text to Bold or un-bolds Bolded text. Clicking the “i” button changes the selected text to Italics or removes italics from text that are italicized. Clicking the “u” button adds an underline to the selected text or removes underlines from text that is underlined.

• Small “a” and Capital “A” Buttons – These two (2) buttons shown below allow you to decrease or increase the font size of selected text in increments of one (1) font size:

[[image:]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(13)-08242022.png

• Font color Button – The Font color button is used to access the OnePager Standard Color Chooser form as shown below to change the color of selected text:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1ecb430d.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(14)-08242022.png

Once the Standard Color Chooser form is access, you can use the color grid to select the desired color for the selected text with a simple click on the desired color. Once a color is selected, the Standard Color Chooser form is closed and the bar under the large A in the Font sub-section takes on the color selected in the Standard Color Chooser form.

Home Tab – Format Sub-Section

The Format sub-section contains controls for making edits to selected task bars/milestone symbols and select task bar/milestone symbol name label text components in the chart. There are two (2) button controls as shown here:

[[image:|624x137px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(15)-08242022.png

Home Tab – Format Sub-Section – Format… Button

The Format… button is enabled whenever a task bar/milestone symbol and/or its associated name label text are selected. When enabled and you click the Format… button, OnePager accesses the selected component’s Change Task/Milestone Properties form at the form’s Format tab as shown below:

[[image:|624x665px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(16)-08242022.png

When the Change Task/Milestone Properties form is accessed you have the capability to edit the various properties of the selected task bar/milestone symbol or symbols using the controls in the form’s Task/Milestone Format control group. When you click the OK button in the form above, any changes you make to the properties of the selected task bar/milestone symbol or symbols are applied to that component only.

Home Tab – Format Sub-Section – Background Color Button

The Background Color button is enabled whenever components with background color properties such as a task bar/milestone symbol or symbols are selected. When enabled and you click the Background Color button, OnePager accesses the Standard Color Chooser form as shown below:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1f01598c.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(17)-08242022.png

Using the Standard Color Chooser form, you can select a background color by clicking any color square in the grid. Making the background color selection closes the Standard Color Chooser form and applies the selected background color as the new background color of the selected task bar/milestone symbol or symbols as shown here where dark green is selected:

[[image:|476x311px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(18)-08242022.png

After the color selection is made, the bar under the Background Color Button in the Format sub-section displays the last selected background color.

The Color Button is also enabled whenever a component with a background color is selected such as a time axis cell, row, swimlane, corner component, comment box, free shape, or curtain.

Home Tab – Alignment Sub-Section

The Alignment buttons in the Alignment sub-section shown below provides the capability to arrange selected text components in the graph with respect to the component in which they reside.

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML1f17b666.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(19)-08242022.png

The Alignment Buttons consist of two (2) rows of three (3) buttons each:

• The top row of Alignment buttons allows you to position selected text components vertically within the selected text component’s enclosure.

• The bottom row of Alignment buttons allows you to position the select text components horizontally within the select text component’s enclosure.

The Alignment sub-section is enabled when any of the following text component enclosures are selected:

• The Corner

• Swimlane Labels

• Row Labels

• Comment Box Text

• Free Shape Text

• Curtain

Home Tab –Position Sub-Section

The Position sub-section contains a dropdown list of thirteen (13) available task bar/milestone symbol name label text positions. When OnePager creates a chart, task bar/milestone symbol name label text positions are selected so as to minimize overlap of name label text to the best of the software’s ability. The Label Position dropdown is shown below:

[[image:|624x116px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(20)-08252022.png

The Label Position dropdown is enabled whenever a task bar/milestone symbol or symbols are selected in the chart. Once enabled, clicking the dropdown button accesses the thirteen (13) name label text position options as shown here:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML239f9075.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(21)-08252022.png

In the illustration above, the selected task bar name label text is positioned to the right of the task bar and this is indicated in the Label Position dropdown list with a checked checkbox at the “Right” position in the dropdown list. Clicking any other option in the dropdown list changes the position of the selected task bar name label text and closes the dropdown list.

Making any selection from the Label Position dropdown list overrides OnePager’s process for minimizing conflicts between task bar/milestone symbol name label texts. However, there are several selection options that do attempt to achieve clarity of task bar/milestone symbol name label text position. These are the name label text position options that begin with “Best fit…”.

The “Legacy best fit” is an option that was brought forward from previous versions of OnePager. The “Use default” option is the option established in the current Template Properties form’s Task Bars or Milestones tab’s Set Label Properties form.

(4.0.2.2.1-72)

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Insert Tab

The OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar Insert tab is shown in detail below:

[[image:|624x131px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(22)-08252022.png

The OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar Page Layout tab is shown in detail below:

[[image:|603x117px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(33)-08252022.png

The Page Layout tab contains four (4) sub-sections and is used to provide control over output media produced by OnePager. These four (4) sub-sections are described below:

Page Layout Tab – View Modes Sub-Section

There are four (4) button controls in the View Modes sub-section that control the viewing modes available in the OnePager Chart Editor. The default mode is Normal as shown in the illustration above which is the viewing mode established when the Chart Editor is opened. Each of the three (3) remaining View Modes is discussed below.

Page Layout Tab – View Modes – Page Break Button

When in the Page Break button is clicked, the Chart Editor displays the location of horizontal and vertical page breaks currently inserted into the chart. If no page breaks are presently inserted into the chart, the chart is updated with a water mark indicating that the entire chart is Page 1.

For illustration, suppose the chart has a vertical and horizontal page break inserted making the chart in output media contain four (4) pages. When the Page Break button is clicked, the Chart Editor displays the locations of the page breaks and the water marks indicating the page number in the appropriate quadrants as shown here:

[[image:|649x462px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(34)-08252022.png

Making any changes in the Document Fitting sub-section updates the Page Break View Mode in the Chart Editor.

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML24cbbdbc.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(36)-08252022.png

The purpose of the Freeze Pages View Mode is to give you the capability for charts that are large in terms of horizontal and/or vertical extent to keep either or both the row and swimlane labels and/or the top/bottom time axis level cells in the Chart Editor’s viewing area when scrolling left and right or up and down. The Freeze Pages settings are carried forward to any output media produced.

The following commands are available in the Freeze Pages View Mode dropdown list:

• Freeze none – The Freeze none command is enabled whenever either the time axis or rows and swimlane labels Freeze commends are displayed in the Chart Editor. Clicking the Freeze none command essentially removes all Freeze options currently shown in the Chart Editor.

• Freeze all – This command turns ON both the Freeze top/bottom time axis and Freeze row and swimlane labels commands and makes them always shown in the Chart Editor.

• Freeze top time axis – The Freeze top time axis command freezes the top time axis level cells in the Chart Editor such that the top time axis is always visible at the top of the chart when vertical scrolling is done. If the bottom time axis is present in the Chart Editor it is not frozen.

• Freeze row and swimlane labels – The Freeze row and swimlane labels freezes any showing row and/or swimlane labels in the Chart Editor such that the row and/or swimlane labels are always visible on the left side of the chart when horizontal scrolling is done.

• Freeze bottom time axis - The Freeze bottom time axis command freezes the bottom time axis level cells in the Chart Editor such that the bottom time axis is always visible at the bottom of the chart when vertical scrolling is done. If the top time axis is present in the Chart Editor it is not frozen.

The Freeze Page View Mode dropdown commands are enabled only when the corresponding component is showing in the Chart Editor in Normal View Mode.

Page Layout Tab – Page Setup Sub-Section

The Page Setup sub-section contains two (2) dropdown lists of command for establishing the page size on output media and for inserting manual horizontal and vertical page breaks into the Chart Editor in Page Break View Mode to establish the number of pages for output media. The Page Setup sub-section and its dropdown commands are shown below:

[[image:|624x119px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(37)-08252022.png

Page Layout Tab – Page Setup Sub-Section – Page Size Dropdown

The Page Size dropdown is a list of available page sizes based upon the printer capabilities connected to your computer. A typical Page Size dropdown list looks like this:

[[image:|624x413px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(38)-08252022.png

The option in the Page Size dropdown list with the checkbox checked is the current page size being used. Changing the page size causes OnePager to adjust the number of pages based upon the current output media being used.

Page Layout Tab – Page Setup Sub-Section – Page Breaks Dropdown

The Page Breaks Dropdown is a list of four (4) commands that provide you with the capability to manually insert horizontal and/or vertical page breaks into the graph. The Page Breaks dropdown list is enabled in the Normal and Page Break View Modes.

Clicking the Page Breaks dropdown list accesses the commands shown in the illustration below:

[[image:|624x161px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(39)-08252022.png

Inserting a manual page break requires three (3) steps.

• First, access the Page Breaks dropdown list and select either the Insert vertical page break option or Insert horizontal page break option.

• Next, the dropdown list closes and you can move the mouse cursor into the graph area where the cursor becomes a plus sign and a dotted line appears in the graph.

• If the Insert vertical page break option is selected, the dotted line is horizontal.
• If the Insert horizontal page break option is selected, the dotted line is vertical.

• For the last step, position the mouse cursor where you want the page break placed and left-click the mouse. When you do this the inserted manual page break snaps into a position depending on its type.

• Vertical page breaks snap between the closes two rows.
• Horizontal page breaks snap between the two closest lower level time axis cells.

The Page Breaks dropdown list contains five (5) commands as follow:

• Insert vertical page break – Inserts a vertical page break that divides the chart into multiple horizontal sections.

• Insert horizontal page break - Inserts a horizontal page break that divides the chart into multiple vertical sections.

• Remove all inserted page breaks – This option removes all manually inserted vertical and/or horizontal page breaks. Automatic page breaks inserted by OnePager remain.

• Remove all page breaks – This option removes all manually inserted and automatically inserted page breaks from the graph.

Page Layout Tab – Document Fitting Sub-Section

The Document Fitting sub-section contains two (2) dropdown lists and a window for showing the scale factor for the chart in output media. The Document Fitting sub-section is shown here:

[[image:|624x118px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(40)-08262022.png

Page Layout Tab – Document Fitting Sub-Section – Width Dropdown

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML29cd8318.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(44)-08262022.png

Increasing the Scale factor enlarges the size of the chart on the output media while decreasing the Scale factor decreases the size of the chart on the output media. Using these controls you can tailor the presentation of the chart on the output media to include printed pages and copied pages suitable for pasting into a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. You also have the option to enter a value into the window. When this is done, the checkbox to the right of the window is enabled. When the final value is set, click on the checkbox and that typed value becomes the scale factor.

Page Layout Tab – Repeating Elements Sub-Section

The Repeating Elements sub-section consists of five (5) checkboxes each turning ON or OFF elements of the chart that appear or are hidden on every page of multi-page output media. The Repeating Elements sub-section is shown below:

[[image:|624x119px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(45)-08262022.png

The five (5) checkboxes shown in the illustration above are enabled when the corresponding chart element is present in the chart. For example, the Header checkbox is disabled because in the chart shown below does not have Headers defined in either the Template Properties or Chart Properties form’s Headers/Footers tab. A four (4) page chart with the above four (4) Repeating Elements turned ON looks like this:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML29f512f7.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(46)-08262022.png

As a contrast, turning all the Repeating Elements OFF produces a Print Preview Mode that looks like this:

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar Data Tab

The OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar Data tab is shown in detail below:

[[image:|624x119px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(48)-08262022.png

The Data tab contains two (2) sub-sections and is used to control chart updates for Replacing a snapshot, Adding a snapshot to the chart, performing a Custom Update of a snapshot, or changing source plan files. These two (2) sub-sections are described below:

Data Tab – Update Sub-Section

The Data tab’s Update sub-section contains three (3) buttons for managing snapshot updates to the chart. The sub-section is shown below:

[[image:|624x132px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(49)-08292022.png

Data Tab – Update Sub-Section – Replace Snapshot Button

Clicking the Replace Snapshot button tells OnePager to immediately access the current source plan packet and update the current chart with the data imported. When this is done, the current chart reflects any changes that were made in the current source plan packet. This technique allows you to make changes to your current source plan or plans and see the results in the current OnePager chart. The snapshot date is not changed using this operation.

Data Tab – Update Sub-Section – Add Snapshot Button

The Add Snapshot button is used to add a snapshot to the current chart with a new date established as the new snapshot date. This operation is used after the current chart is OPENED, when the source plan packet is updated, and you need to add a snapshot to reflect the current source plan packet’s new status or date change information. Clicking the Add Snapshot button accessed the OnePager Standard Date Picker form shown below:

[[image:|551x276px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(50)-08292022.png

Use the Standard Date Picker form to establish the date for the new added snapshot. This operation pulls in the source plan packet’s data and creates a new snapshot with a new snapshot date. At the end of the operation, the Chart Editor displays a chart that reflects the changes made in the source plan packet.

Data Tab – Update Sub-Section – Custom Update… Button

The Custom Update… button is used to perform a more complex snapshot update. Clicking the Custom Update… button causes OnePager to re-access the current source plan packet and access a modified version of the OnePager choices form as shown here:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML517080c.PNG <P72-4_0_2_2-72-(51)-08292022.png>

You can use the Custom Update… to perform more complex updates to the chart because the OnePager choices form provides the controls for adding, changing, or removing source plans from a packet, changing the method of Task Selection, opting to create a new snapshot at a specific date (not shown above), or replacing a snapshot at a date with a choice of one (1) of three (3) replacement modes.

Data Tab – Selected File(s)… Button

The Select File(s)… button access the Data source selection form shown below which displays the current source plan or plans that were used to create the current chart:

[[image:|545x374px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(52)-08292022.png

You can used the Data source selection form to change the current source plan file in the packet via the Remove and Add buttons in the form or choose to add a new source plan to the packet. Once the update to the source plans is completed, you can use the features in the Update sub-section to update your chart in the manner desired. At least one (1) source plan file must appear in the Data source select form’s grid.

OnePager's Ribbon Tool Bar View Tab

The OnePager Ribbon Tool Bar View tab is shown in detail below:

[[image:|624x103px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(53)-08292022.png

The View tab is useful for managing the contents of the Chart Editor with respect to which snapshots are shown, for Zooming in and out on specific sections of the chart, for controlling the display of graphic elements, refreshing the chart, and altering the chart’s extent by changing its Start/Finish dates. The five (5) sub-sections of the View tab are discussed below:

View Tab – Snapshots Sub-Section

The three (3) controls in the Snapshots sub-section are enabled only when the chart contains two ( 2) or more snapshots.

View Tab – Snapshots Sub-Section – Previous/Next Buttons

The left and right pointing arrows are enabled only when, from the current Chart Editor snapshot being displayed, there is a Previous snapshot or a Next snapshot from the perspective of the current snapshot being displayed in the Chart Editor. Clicking the Previous or left point arrow when it is enabled causes the Chart Editor to display the previous snapshot in the sequence of snapshot dates. Clicking the Next or right pointing arrow when it is enabled takes you to the next or further dated snapshot available in the chart.

View Tab – Snapshots Sub-Section – List All Button

When you click the List All button, OnePager accesses the Select snapshot form which lists all the snapshots by date in the chart. Selecting a snapshot date in the grid displays that selected snapshot in the Chart Editor when you click the OK button on the Select snapshot form as shown below:

View Tab – Layout Sub-Section

There are four (4) controls in the Layout sub-section, shown below, used for controlling the “look” in the Chart Editor with respect to magnification and orientation on your screen. These four (4) controls are discussed in detail below:

[[image:|624x103px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(54A)-09022022.png

View Tab – Layout Sub-Section – Zoom In/Zoom Out Buttons

The Zoom In/Zoom Out buttons change the magnification (Zoom factor) within the graph and allow you to focus in or away from portions of the chart as demonstrated below:

Suppose the chart’s Zoom factor is set to 100% as shown here:

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\SNAGHTML54461f9.PNG P72-4_0_2_2-72-(55)-08292022.png

In the illustration above, the Zoom to: window show 100%. If the Zoom In button is clicked once, the Zoom factor changes to 110% and, as shown in the illustration below, the swimlanes and task bars appear larger and less of the chart appears on your screen.

[[image:|478x329px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(56)-08292022.png

Additional clicks on the Zoom In button increases the Zoom factor and ultimately OnePager provides horizontal and vertical scroll bars for navigation in the Chart Editor.

Clicking the Zoom Out button reduces the magnification making the graph look smaller in the Chart Editor.

Each time either the Zoom In or Zoom Out button is clicked, the value in the Zoom to: window is changed to reflect the change in Zoom factor.

View Tab – Layout Sub-Section – Zoom To: Dropdown and Window

The Zoom to: window has a dropdown list of most use Zoom factors as shown below:

Clicking the Zoom to: dropdown accesses the dropdown list shown above. Select the desired Zoom factor with a left click and the selected value is entered into the Zoom to: window.

You also have the option to set the Zoom factor to by clicking in the Zoom to: window and typing the desired value. After typing in the value, the checkbox to the left of the Zoom to: window is enabled and clicking this checkbox sets the new Zoom factor value into the Chart Editor. The values accepted range from 5% to 500%.

View Tab – Layout Sub-Section – Fit: Dropdown

The Fit: dropdown lets you set the orientation of the graph in the Chart Editor to either Vertical or Horizontal as shown in the dropdown below:

[[image:|624x103px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(58)-08292022.png

The Vertical Fit option assures that the single page in the Chart Editor shows all the rows and swimlanes vertically even if the screen is not filled to the right as shown below:

[[image:|481x261px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(59)-08292022.png

The Vertical Fit: option shows the entire chart vertically in the Chart Editor’s viewing area. If the extent is large in terms of the charts Start/Finish dates. A horizontal scroll bar is provided on the bottom of the chart.

Selecting the Horizontal Fit option produces the screen view of the Chart Editor shown below:

[[image:|492x267px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(60)-08292022.png

In this Fit: option the chart fills the width of the Chart Editor’s viewing area but the vertical portion is cut off and available using the scroll bar on the right.

View Tab – Graphic Elements Sub-Section

There are five (5) checkbox controls in the Graphic Elements sub-section used for controlling which graphic elements such as the time cursor, Hover Boxes, Timestamps, The Legend, or Task Links are shown in the chart. These five (5) checkbox controls are discussed in detail below:

[[image:|624x103px]] P72-4_0_2_2-72-(61)-08292022.png

View Tab – Graphic Elements Sub-Section – Time Cursor Checkbox
