==Overview - New Features and Upgrades==
+
==Installing OnePager Pro Version 7.0==
  
−
OnePager Pro ('''OPP''') and Express ('''OPX''') version 7.0 provides two new '''capabilities and features''', and six '''upgrades and enhancements''' that are summarized in this article.
+
Installation of OnePager Pro ('''OPP''') for version 7.0 remains the same as previous versions.  The process is repeated here for your convenience. We smartened up our installer and are offering you two installation options to launch '''OPP''' (1) as an '''Add-in''' to Microsoft Project and (2) a new option to launch '''OPP''' directly from a '''desktop''' Icon. For more information on further details, please see the article at: [[Getting Started with OnePager Pro Version 7.0 Desktop | Getting Started with OnePager Pro Desktop]] <!--3.0.1.2-70-->
  
−
These new '''capabilities and features are''':   
+
==Smart Installer==
  
−
:* Multiple Swimlane Levels
+
The '''OPP''' installer comes in two varieties:  
−
:* The Smart Text Optimization Feature
+
  
−
The new '''upgrades and enhancements''' are:
+
1) an .EXE file for individuals to install on their desktop and
  
−
:* Refreshed User Interface
+
2) a .ZIP file for IT professionals that are installing '''OPP''' into a managed network environment.
−
:* Easier Timeline and Gantt Chart Layouts
+
−
:* Easier Text Editing
+
−
:* Advanced Swimlane Formatting
+
−
:* Advanced Text Column Formatting
+
−
:* Nomenclature Changes
+
  
−
The subsections below provide an overview and links to more detailed descriptions of the new '''upgraded capabilities, features, and enhancements''':
+
The .EXE smart installer figures out the '''bitness''' of your computer (i.e., 32-bits or 64-bits) and installs the correct bitness to match your computer automatically.
  
−
==New Features and Capabilities==
+
The .ZIP file contains all installation instructions in the .ZIP file’s README.rtf file.  No further discussion on IT professional installations is provided here.
  
−
===Multiple Swimlane Levels===
+
Both installers provide the options to install both the '''OPP Add-in''' and '''desktop Icon''' launch options or to just install the '''OPP desktop Icon''' launch option only. Regardless of which of these two options is selected, your computer still requires that Microsoft Project be installed and available.
  
−
Previous versions of OnePager Pro and Express supported '''one swimlane level''' which allowed you to group '''rows''' together based on a particular '''source plan''' data field and its values.
+
===Microsoft .NET Version Requirements to Run OnePager===
  
−
====About Multiple Swimlane Levels====
+
Version 7.0 requires that the users have installed Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5 Full or later on their computer. After '''installation is complete''', OnePager displays both the required Microsoft .NET Framework version and the Microsoft .NET Framework version installed at the '''About''' tab on the ribbon’s '''File''' tab as shown below:
  
−
OnePager Pro and Express version 7.0 now supports '''three  swimlane levels''' which can be '''nested''' inside one another to better display a hierarchy relationship for a Program, its Projects, and their Phases as shown here:
+

 +
<!--<center><P70-1_0_1-70-(1)-04282020.png></center>-->
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(20)-03102020.png]]</center>
+
If the .NET 4.5 or later Framework is not installed on your computer, [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653 download it for free] from Microsoft.
−
<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(20)-03102020.png<center>-->
+
  
−
In the illustration above, the '''first swimlane level''' is “Program” and under it as the '''second swimlane level''' are its “Projects”.  The '''third swimlane level''' under each “Project” are “Phases” and the '''rows''' within each '''Phase''' show the '''task bars''' at their appropriate '''start/end dates'''.
+
===OnePager Pro Installation Process===
  
−
'''Definition''' and '''editing''' of these '''multiple swimlane levels''' is accomplished in the '''Template Properties''' and '''Chart Properties '''form’s '''Rows/Swimlanes '''tab that is modified to provide all the controls necessary to manage these '''multiple swimlane levels''' in the chart.  The '''Rows/Swimlanes '''tab  of the '''Chart Properties '''form is shown below:
+
To install '''OPP''' version 7.0 locate the '''.EXE''' file from the download and double click on the file name.  The following form may appear:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(21-1)-08282020.png]]</center>

+
<!--<center><X61-1_0_1-61-(9)-12042018.png></center>-->
  
−
In addition to adding '''multiple swimlane levels''', the tab shown above is simplified by reorganizing the controls associated with '''Rows''' and '''Text Columns'''.
+
Click the '''Run''' button which launches the '''OPP''' installer and the following form appears:
  
−
'''Sorting''' controls for '''rows''' and '''swimlanes''' are in separate sub-control groups as shown above.
+
<center>[[File:P70-1_0_1-70-(3)-07012019.png]]</center>
 +
<!--<center><P70-1_0_1-70-(3)-07012019.png></center>-->
  
−
There is a '''Row Borders Formatting… '''button in the '''Rows '''control group with the controls for defining and '''global editing''' of '''row borders''' and access buttons for '''Swimlane Formatting… '''and '''Text Column Formatting…'''
+
When you click the '''Setup''' button the installer begins the installation process and the form below appears:
  
−
The controls shown above for the '''Chart Properties '''form are also found in the distributed '''Template '''form’s '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab.

===The Smart Text Optimization Feature===
+
====Everyone or Just Me Selection Options====
  
−
====About The Smart Text Optimization Feature====
+
At this point, you can either accept the default options or change the selections as required.
  
−
Previous versions of OnePager required you to re-position '''task bar name labels''' for '''task names''' in the chart when various '''editing''' actions caused '''task bar name labels''' to '''collide'''.  That is, when the '''task  bar name label''' overlays a task bar or other '''task  bar name label''' and they become difficult to read in the chart or other '''output media'''. In such cases, you needed to select the '''task bar name label''', go to the '''Home''' ribbon tool bar tab's '''Position''' control group, and select a new '''task bar name label position''' from those available in the dropdown list.  Often, it required '''several selections''' and perhaps the creation of a '''task bar name label in a comment box''' and a few '''drag and drop''' actions before the '''task bar name label''' became more readable.
+
The first set of options allows you to install '''OPP''' for '''every user account''' on the computer or only for the '''user account performing the installation'''.
  
−
With OnePager 7.0  a new capability is provided called the '''Smart Text Optimization''' feature that recognizes these '''task bar name label collision''' situations during chart '''creation''' and '''updates''' and '''automatically''' attempts to take the '''task bar name label''' involved out of '''collision'''. Implementation of this new feature comes with three (3) additional '''task bar name label position options''': '''Best fit all directions''', '''Best fit above/below''', '''Legacy best fit'''.  The '''Legacy best fit''' option recognizes '''task bar name label positions''' from previous versions of OnePager Pro and Express.
+
====Add-in And Desktop Application Selection Options====
−
Also provided are a set of controls that give you options for establishing the '''priorities''' with which the '''text collision avoidance algorithm''', as we call it, employs the feature for you.
+
  
−
Finally, there is a new command provided in the '''task bar''' right-click '''context menu''' and the '''task bar name label''' right-click '''context menu''' you can use to perform the '''text collision avoidance algorithm manually''' on selected task bars/milestone symbols that are involved in a '''task bar name label collision''' situation.
+
The second set of options, both of which require the presence of Microsoft Project on the computer, allows you to install both the '''Add-in''' and '''desktop''' applications and their launch '''Icons''' for '''OPP''' or just the '''desktop''' application and its launch '''Icon'''.
  
−
====More Information====
+
Selecting the '''Launch from my desktop or from Microsoft Project''' option inserts '''OPP''' as a Microsoft Project '''Add-in''' and place a '''OPP desktop Icon''' on your desktop.  Please note that after selecting this launch option that you only are able to launch either '''OPP Add-in''' or '''OPP desktop'''.  Only one of these applications can be launched at a time.  If you attempt to launch both, a warning message appears as shown below:
  
−
Detailed information on the new '''Smart Text Optimization''' feature can be found at these links:

===Refreshed User Interface===
+
Clicking the '''Close''' button completes the installation process and you are ready to begin.
  
−
====About the Refreshed User Interface====
+
==OnePager Pro Help==
  
−
The '''Refreshed User Interface''' is our enhancement to giving OnePager products a more up-to-date look and feel consistent with the latest versions of the Microsoft Office  and other Project Scheduling software products interfacing with OnePager. This enhancement involves a modernization of the '''Chart Editor''', its '''ribbon tool bar tabs''', button '''Icons''', various forms and sub-forms, dropdown menus/lists, and left-click and right-click context menus. In a similar way, all major forms such as the '''Chart Properties''' and '''Template Properties''' forms are modernized to be consistent throughout our product line and to make their control groups easier to identify.  Additionally, other sub-forms were simplified to achieve the same goals.
+
===OnePager Pro Tutorial===
  
−
====More Information====
+
The first time you launch Microsoft Project a '''Getting Started Tutorial''' form appears as shown below.  You can take the tutorial or close it so that you can take the tutorial at another time.  The '''Getting Started Tutorial''' form continues to appear each time you launch Microsoft Project until you check the '''Do not show this tutorial at start up''' checkbox.
  
−
Please take a moment to look at the '''Read More…''' article below which provides additional information on the new '''OnePager User Interface''' enhancements and some examples of the look and feel changes made to the '''Chart Editor''' and supporting forms.

====About Timelines and Gantt Chart Layouts====
+
===Getting Help===
  
−
In OnePager 7.0, the controls for selecting between a '''Gantt chart layout''' and the '''Timeline layout''' are more efficiently arranged. The '''Gantt chart layout''' is where task bars/milestone symbols are arranged one per '''row''' and the '''Timeline layout''' arranges the chart so that multiple task bars/milestone symbols occupy one '''row'''. The controls are located in the '''Template Properties''' and '''Chart Properties''' form's '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab in the '''Rows''' control group as shown below:
+
When you click the '''Help''' button on the '''OnePager Start''' form  the '''OnePager Pro Help''' form is accessed with its seven (7) '''help''' button selection options as shown below:
  
−
<center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(1)-04232020.png]]</center>

+
<!--<center><P70-1_0_1-70-(10)-04282020.png></center>-->
  
−
The underlying functionality has not changed from previous versions of OnePager. The new arrangement of these controls makes them easier to find and understand.
+
In addition to the '''Tutorial''' button, you can access other helpful information by clicking on '''Short Videos''', '''Quick-Start Guide''', '''User Guide''', '''OnePager Wiki''', or the '''Blog''' button.

==Temporarily Disabling and Re-enabling OnePager Pro==
  
−
:Read More...  [https://www.onepager.com/support/beta/gantt-timeline.html Easier Timeline and Gantt Chart Layouts]
+
OnePager Pro can be '''temporarily disabled''' as an '''Add-in''' to Microsoft Project and later '''re-enabled''' as an '''Add-in''' to Microsoft Project to resume its role. Instructions for '''temporarily disabling''' and '''re-enabling''' OnePager Pro for Microsoft Project are found in this article: [[Temporarily Disabling and Re-enabling OnePager Pro for Version 7.0 | Temporarily Disabling and Re-enabling OnePager Pro]] <!--1.5.1-70-->

If you find it necessary to '''uninstall''' OnePager Pro, please see this article for instructions: [[Uninstalling OnePager Pro for Version 7.0 | Uninstalling OnePager Pro]] <!--1.4.1-70-->
−
 
+
−
Previous versions of OnePager grouped all '''text elements''' associated with a task bar or milestone symbols together.  When task bars had '''text elements''' that you desired to separate to different '''label positions''' around the task bar several '''editing''' operations were required.
+
−
 
+
−
OnePager 7.0 makes this easier by employing the '''Label Position''' dropdown list of options on the OnePager '''Home''' ribbon tool bar tab.  Since '''text elements''' can be individually selected with a left-click in OnePager 7.0, the '''Label Position''' dropdown list is '''enabled''' and you can reposition the '''text element''' to specific '''label position''' locations around the task bar/milestone symbol as needed.  The '''Home''' ribbon tool bar's '''Label Position''' drop down list is shown  below:

===Advanced Swimlane Formatting===
+
−
 
+
−
====About Swimlane Formatting====
+
−
 
+
−
The new '''multiple swimlane feature''' is covered above.  In OnePager 7.0 along with '''multiple swimlane levels''' are a set of controls (for each '''swimlane level''') giving you the capability to '''control and format''' '''swimlane level column headings''', the '''swimlane level column heading text''' and '''swimlane level borders'''.
+
−
 
+
−
The sub-form for these '''controls and formatting capabilities''' is called the '''Swimlane Formatting - Left #n''' form where the '''n''' is the '''swimlane level number'''. This sub-form is accessed by clicking the '''Swimlane Formatting ...''' button in the '''Template Properties''' or '''Chart Properties''' form's '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab in the '''Swimlanes'''  control group. The '''Chart Properties''' form's '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab and the '''Swimlane Formatting - Left #1''' form is shown below:

===Advanced Text Column Formatting===
+
−
 
+
−
====About Text Column Formatting====
+
−
 
+
−
Implementing '''multiple swimlane levels''' in OnePager 7.0 provides an opportunity to make the controls for '''text column creation and editing''' more efficient and consistent with controls for '''multiple swimlane levels'''.
+
−
 
+
−
As with the '''multiple swimlane level''' controls, there is a new sub-form supporting '''formatting''' for '''text columns''' called the '''Text-Column Formatting - Left #n''' form accessed by clicking the '''Text Column Formatting ...''' button in the '''Template Properties''' or '''Chart Properties''' form's '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab in the '''Text Column''' control group shown here:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(5)-04232020.png]]</center>
+
−
<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(5)-04232020.png<center>-->
+
−
 
+
−
The sub-form for these '''controls and formatting capabilities''' is called the '''Text-Column Formatting - Left #n''' form where the '''n''' is the '''text column number'''. 
+
−
 
+
−
The controls in this sub-form support the following '''text column''', '''text column heading''', '''text column cell''', and '''row''' '''editing''' features:
+
−
 
+
−
:* Setting '''Text Column Cell Background Colors''' - '''Background color'''
+
−
:* Changing '''Text Column Cell Backgrounds''' Manually - '''Background color 1 and Background color 2'''
+
−
:* Changing the '''Source Plan''' Field Used for '''Text Columns'''

===Nomenclature Changes===
+
−
 
+
−
In the process of producing OnePager 7.0 we responded to our customers by making changes to our terminology usage. We changed the terminology used to refer to the principle graphic output of OnePager from '''project view''' to '''chart'''.  We did this because the great majority of our customers use OnePager to produce what they call '''charts''' and rarely us the term '''project view''' when referencing the output products of OnePager in their schedule conversations. 
+
−
 
+
−
In this document (Wiki), the word '''chart''' replaces the term '''project-view'''. To be consistent with the change to the word '''chart''', we changed the name of the '''Project-View Properties''' ('''PVP''') form to '''Chart Properties''' form.  Finally, under this terminology change, the '''Project View Editor''' ('''PVE''') becomes the '''Chart Editor''' everywhere in this Wiki document.

==New Rules for Selection of Task Bars, Milestone Symbols, and Name Labels in the Chart==
+
−
 
+
−
As part of the '''Smart Task/Milestone Text Labeling''' feature's implementation introduced in OnePager 7.0, we changed the rules for task bars and '''task bar name labels''' manual left-click and right-click selection as follows:
+
−
 
+
−
===Left-Click Selection Rules===
+
−
 
+
−
To select a task bar or milestone symbol in OnePager 7.0, left-click the task bar or milestone symbol itself.
+
−
 
+
−
To select the task bar's or milestone symbols '''name label''' left-click the '''name label''' only.
+
−
 
+
−
===Right-Click Selection Rules===
+
−
 
+
−
A right-click on a task bar or milestone symbol accesses a '''context menu''' with commands that are associated with '''edits''' to the task bar or milestone symbol itself.
+
−
 
+
−
A right-click on a task bar's or milestone symbol's '''name label''' accesses a specific '''context menu''' tailored with commands that are for '''edits''' to the '''name label'''.
+
−
 
+
−
When a set of task bars and/or milestone symbols and their associated '''name labels''' are in a '''name label collision''' situation, a right-click accesses the '''context menu''' with a command to invoke the '''text label collision avoidance algorithm''' which is '''Re-optimize text collisions'''.
+
−
 
+
−
===Select Associated Text Checkbox Usage===
+
−

Since these new rules represent a change from previous versions of OnePager with respect to selecting task bars or milestone symbols and their '''name labels''', OnePager 7.0 provides a option for setting the behavior of task bar or milestone symbol selection to that of previous versions.
+
−
 
+
−
This option is controlled by a checkbox in the '''Advanced''' tab of the '''Template''' and '''Chart Properties''' forms in the '''Display options''' control group called '''Select associated text''' shown here:

+
−
<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(6-1)-08282020.png<center>-->
+
−
 
+
−
The '''default''' setting in the checkbox is checked '''OFF'''.  Checking this checkbox to '''ON''' changes the behavior of a left-click on a task bar/milestone symbol such that the left-click selects '''both''' the task bar/milestone symbol and the '''text label'''.
+
−
 
+
−
Regardless of the setting in the '''Select associated text''' checkbox, there is no difference in how the right-click on a task bar/milestone symbol and/or '''text label''' operates.
+
−
 
+
−
===Changes to Task Bar/Milestone Symbol and Text Label Right-Click Context Menus===
+
−
 
+
−
The changes to task bar and milestone symbol and '''name label''' selection described above offers an opportunity to simplify the '''context menus''' .
+
−
 
+
−
The right-click on task bar or milestone symbol right-click '''context menu'''  as well as the task bar or milestone symbol '''name label''' right-click '''context menus''' contain commands available in previous versions of OnePager with the addition of a new command associated with the '''Smart Task/Milestone Text Labeling''' feature - the '''Re-optimize text collisions''' command as shown below for the task bar '''name label''' right-click '''context menu''':

The right click on a task bar or milestone symbol has a '''context menu''' that allows you to '''edit''' the task bar or milestone symbol and to access the '''Change Task/Milestone Properties''' form shown here: .

Installing OnePager Pro Version 7.0

Installation of OnePager Pro (OPP) for version 7.0 remains the same as previous versions. The process is repeated here for your convenience. We smartened up our installer and are offering you two installation options to launch OPP (1) as an Add-in to Microsoft Project and (2) a new option to launch OPP directly from a desktop Icon. For more information on further details, please see the article at: Getting Started with OnePager Pro Desktop

Smart Installer

The OPP installer comes in two varieties:

1) an .EXE file for individuals to install on their desktop and

2) a .ZIP file for IT professionals that are installing OPP into a managed network environment.

The .EXE smart installer figures out the bitness of your computer (i.e., 32-bits or 64-bits) and installs the correct bitness to match your computer automatically.

The .ZIP file contains all installation instructions in the .ZIP file’s README.rtf file. No further discussion on IT professional installations is provided here.

Both installers provide the options to install both the OPP Add-in and desktop Icon launch options or to just install the OPP desktop Icon launch option only. Regardless of which of these two options is selected, your computer still requires that Microsoft Project be installed and available.

Microsoft .NET Version Requirements to Run OnePager

Version 7.0 requires that the users have installed Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5 Full or later on their computer. After installation is complete, OnePager displays both the required Microsoft .NET Framework version and the Microsoft .NET Framework version installed at the About tab on the ribbon’s File tab as shown below:

If the .NET 4.5 or later Framework is not installed on your computer, download it for free from Microsoft.

OnePager Pro Installation Process

To install OPP version 7.0 locate the .EXE file from the download and double click on the file name. The following form may appear:

X61-1 0 1-61-(9)-12042018.png

Click the Run button which launches the OPP installer and the following form appears:

P70-1 0 1-70-(3)-07012019.png

When you click the Setup button the installer begins the installation process and the form below appears:

P70-1 0 1-70-(4)-07012019.png

Clicking the Next> button accesses the License Agreement form which you should read.

Then, click the I Agree button and the “Next>” button as shown below:

P70-1 0 1-70-(5)-07012019.png

After clicking the Next> button on the form above, the OPP installer displays the Installation Options form shown below:

P70-1 0 1-70-(6)-07012019.png

Everyone or Just Me Selection Options

At this point, you can either accept the default options or change the selections as required.

The first set of options allows you to install OPP for every user account on the computer or only for the user account performing the installation.

Add-in And Desktop Application Selection Options

The second set of options, both of which require the presence of Microsoft Project on the computer, allows you to install both the Add-in and desktop applications and their launch Icons for OPP or just the desktop application and its launch Icon.

Selecting the Launch from my desktop or from Microsoft Project option inserts OPP as a Microsoft Project Add-in and place a OPP desktop Icon on your desktop. Please note that after selecting this launch option that you only are able to launch either OPP Add-in or OPP desktop. Only one of these applications can be launched at a time. If you attempt to launch both, a warning message appears as shown below:

P70-1 0 1-70-(6A)-07012019.png

Selecting the Launch from my desktop only option places the OPP desktop Icon on your computer. After making your option selections, click the Next> button on the form above to access the OnePager Pro Information form shown below:

P70-1 0 1-70-(7)-07012019.png

At this point, you can copy the contents of the OnePager Pro Information form for later reference and then click the Next> button. This action accesses the OnePager Pro Installation Complete form shown here:

P70-1 0 1-70-(9)-07012019.png

Clicking the Close button completes the installation process and you are ready to begin.

OnePager Pro Help

OnePager Pro Tutorial

The first time you launch Microsoft Project a Getting Started Tutorial form appears as shown below. You can take the tutorial or close it so that you can take the tutorial at another time. The Getting Started Tutorial form continues to appear each time you launch Microsoft Project until you check the Do not show this tutorial at start up checkbox.

P70-1 0 1-70-(10)-07012019.png

The Getting Started Tutorial does not automatically appear when you launch OPP from the desktop Icon. To get to the tutorial from the OnePager Start form, click the Help button in the upper right corner of the form as shown below:

P70-1 0 1-70-(10A)-07012019.png

When you click the Help button on the OnePager Start form the OnePager Pro Help form is accessed with its seven (7) help button selection options as shown below:
