=Using the OnePager Wiki (W71-2_1-71-05052022.docx)=
+
==Introduction==
  
−
==Purpose==
+
This article is focused on using the ''' Column Splitting''' feature with OnePager Bundle '''Standalone''' and '''imported''' Asana '''source plans'''.
  
−
The purpose of this article is to provide you with guidance on how to use the OnePager Wiki to help you answer questions on OnePager product’s '''controls''', '''features''', '''functions''', and '''forms'''.  All this information is contained in the OnePager Wiki organized to speed your access to what you need and improve your command of the OnePager series of products.
+
==About Splitting and Parsing Fields==
  
−
==Organization==
+
The OnePager '''column splitting''' feature allows you to '''duplicate task bars''' when a task in your Asana '''source plan''' is assigned to '''multiple resources''' (or anything else).  Because assignments from Asana often are '''comma-delimited''', this feature enables OnePager to '''parse the comma-delimited list''' and '''create a unique task bar''' for each instance in the '''comma-separated''' list. 
  
−
The OnePager Wiki is organized by OnePager product series version.  That is, the OnePager Wiki includes OnePager product series documentation for '''Versions 6.0 through 7.1'''.
+
===Split Resource Names Example===
  
−
On the OnePager Wiki’s '''Main Page''' you can choose between OnePager product series versions.  We recommend using a mouse '''right-click''' to select the article series into a new browser tab.
+
Say you want to use '''color-codes''' on task bars/milestone symbols based upon your Asana '''source plan’s Assigned to''' column as shown below:
  
−
Clicking on the OnePager product series version '''link''' takes you to that series’ '''Index page''' which contains '''links''' to all '''top level articles''' organized from top to bottom into sub-sections. This organizational method is based on how you might typically approach using OnePager.  The top level articles are organized into the sub-sections listed below:
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(1)-11022023.png]]</center>
 +
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(1)-11022023.png</center>
  
−
:* '''Overview'''
+
Some of the entries in the '''Assigned to''' column consist of multiple, '''comma-separated''' items and some tasks only used one '''resource'''.  Without the '''column splitting''' feature, a chart '''created''' from these data and assigned task bar/milestone symbol '''colors''' based upon the '''Assigned to''' column looks like this:
−
:* '''What’s New in this Release'''
+
−
:* '''Installing and Licensing OnePager'''
+
−
:* '''First Things'''
+
−
:* '''Ways to Make a Chart'''
+
−
:* '''About the Chart Properties Form'''
+
−
:* '''Ways to Make Changes to Your Chart'''
+
−
:* '''About OnePager Templates'''
+
−
:* '''Getting Help'''
+
−
:* '''Other Resources'''
+
  
−
These top level articles are shown for '''Version 7.1''' in the illustration below:
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(5)-11272023.png]]</center>
 +
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(5)-11272023.png</center>
  
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(3-3)-05052022.png]]</center>
+
OnePager, in this case, treats the '''entire string''' as an individual '''Assigned to''' value. To provide more flexibility in displaying task bars that have '''multiple resources''' assigned, OnePager supports the concept of a '''column splitting'''.  This feature recognizes '''comma-separated''' values in a '''designated column''' and '''creates a separate task bar''' for each of the '''comma-separated''' values.
−

+
  
−
==Tools for Using the OnePager Wiki==
+
===Enabling Splitting===
  
−
There are several tools to help you '''navigate''' through the OnePager Wiki to locate the information you need.  What follows are a series of sub-sections that describe each tool.
+
To use this feature requires turning '''ON''' the feature in the Asana '''Template Properties''' form you intend to use to make the chart.  The setting must be turned '''ON''' before the chart is created so launch OnePager Bundle from the '''desktop icon''', click the '''NEW''' button on the '''OnePager Bundle Start''' form to access the '''OnePager choices''' form, '''select''' your Asana '''source plan''', and type in the chart's '''title''' as shown here:
  
−
===Content Boxes===
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2A)-11022023.png]]</center>
 +
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2A)-11022023.png</center>
  
−
Please note that the '''Index page''' above has a '''Contents box''' in the upper left corner.  This '''Contents box''' has the top level '''links '''and '''lower level links''' appearing in the article you accessed.  Each entry in the '''Contents box '''is an '''active link''' to a sub-section within the article and you can use these''' links''' to jump to the sub-section in one of two ways:
+
When you click the '''Next>''' button at the bottom of the form, OnePager accesses the second page of the '''OnePager choices''' form shown below:
  
−
:* '''Left-click''' the''' link '''in the '''Contents box''' to go directly to the sub-section in your '''current''' browser tab.
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2AA)-11022023.png]]</center>
−
:* '''Right-click''' the '''link''' in the '''Contents box''' to go to the sub-section in a '''new tab''' after selecting the browser '''context menu command''' to do so.
+
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2AA)-11022023.png</center>
  
−
====Articles Organized into Levels====
+
Clicking the '''Edit current template''' button accesses the current '''Template Properties''' form.  Navigate to the '''Field Mappings''' tab on the form, check the '''Enable splitting on:''' checkbox to '''ON''' and (in this example) select the '''Assigned To''' column from the dropdown list provided.  The results are shown here:
  
−
Again using the illustration above, the page is sub-divided into sub-sections with a top level heading followed by a solid line crossing underneath across the page. The illustration above shows only the top level, so below is an example of a '''Contents box''' showing three levels of '''links''' that comprise the sample article.
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2AAA)-11022023.png]]</center>
 +
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2AAA)-11022023.png</center>
  
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(5)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
Click the '''Save and use''' button to complete the process and close the current '''Template Properties''' form returning you to the second page of the '''OnePager choices''' form show above.
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(5)-05022022.png</center>
+
  
−
All these '''links''' are clickable as described above using either a '''left-click''' for direct access or the '''right-click''' for access through a new browser tab.
+
===Split Resources in the Chart===
  
−
Referencing the '''Index page''' again, there are a few things to point out using the illustration below:
+
Clicking the '''Create new chart''' button completes the process and creates the chart with the '''column splitting''' feature in use.  The chart with '''splitting''' looks like this:
  
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(6)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
<center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2)-11022023.png]]</center>
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(6)-05022022.png</center>
+
<center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2)-11022023.png</center>
  
−
The '''Contents box''' shows the first entry (1.Overview) as a '''link '''pointing to the level 1 sub-section Heading.  Clicking the '''“1.Overview” link''' takes you directly to this level 1 sub-section heading in the article itself.
+
In the chart with '''column splitting''' shown above, there are now several more task bars in the '''Chart Editor''' than there were before.  The task bar for '''Plate Movement''' is now '''split into two (2) separate task bars''', one for each of the '''two resources assigned'''. The task bar for '''Centrifugal Barrier''' is now '''split into three (3) separate task bars''', one for each of the '''three resources''' that were assigned to this task in the Asana '''source plan'''.  Each of the '''resources''' has a unique '''color''' assigned. Each of the '''resources''' appears by itself in the '''Legend'''.  The '''Legend title''' shows the '''column name''' that is used for '''splitting the columns'''.
  
−
====Link Tables====
+
With this feature, you can use '''column splitting''' just like any other column by using the dropdowns in the '''Template Properties''' form or '''Chart Properties''' form to assign '''colors, highlight task bars and milestone symbols, and to define and label rows and swimlanes'''.
  
−
Further down there are two '''links''' enclosed in a single line box.  The box is a '''link table''' where the left-most''' link''' is a '''link''' to the OnePager.com website and the second or right-most '''link''' is a '''link''' to another article in the OnePager Wiki.
+
==Splitting Resources and Task Links==
  
−
'''Link tables''' are used throughout the OnePager Wiki to group together '''links''' to related articles, that is, articles that cover the same general topic.  A '''link table''' may have one or more columns where the rows in the column represents a series of '''controls''', '''features''', or '''functions''' and each column is for a different product in the OnePager product series.
+
When task bars with '''Data-Driven''' or manual '''Task Links''' are '''split''', the '''Task Links''' ('''Data-Driven''' and manual) are '''not shown'''.  Further, the '''Task Links''' that are now '''hidden''' and '''do not''' have entries in the '''Where are My Links?''' form.
  
−
====Portal Articles====
+
==Related Links==
  
−
Looking at the level 1 sub-section heading called '''“Installing and Licensing OnePager'''” there is a '''link''' table containing six '''links''' where the top three '''links''' are suffixed with the phrase '''“(Portal)”'''. This phrase is used in the OnePager Wiki to designate an article that is itself an '''index to articles''' within its hierarchy providing access more subordinate articles and information.

[[Category:Template Properties Form]]

As discussed in a previous section, the article’s '''Contents box''' is a set of '''links''' that can take you directly to the top level and a sub-section level of the article. This is illustrated below by the '''Contents box''' for the '''“Main”''' article under the '''“Editing with the Chart Properties form for Version 7.1 (Portal)”''' article shown previously:
+
[[Category:Chart Properties Form]]

+
−
 
+
−
Looking at this '''Contents box''' gives you a picture of how articles are organized.  First, there is a high level section that discusses the '''purpose and content''' of the article and usually provides a screenshot of the '''form''' or other object that the article is going to cover.  If the article is covering the '''controls''' associated with a '''form''', '''tab''' or '''sub-tab''', the next sub-sections are organized on the basis of how the '''form''', '''tab''', or '''sub-tab''' is organized. Each '''control group''' or '''sub-control groups''' control is then described supported with additional screenshots and, where appropriate, examples.
+
−
 
+
−
====Article Content Organization====
+
−
 
+
−
OnePager is available in three series:  OnePager Pro supporting Microsoft Project '''source plans'''; OnePager Express supporting Microsoft Excel '''source plans'''; and OnePager Bundle supporting Microsoft Project, Microsoft Excel, Oracle Primavera P6, and Smartsheet '''source plans'''.  Additionally, OnePager Pro and OnePager Express have editions where access to the OnePager application is available as both an '''Add-in''' and '''Standalone'''.  For OnePager Bundle, the application can be accessed via the '''Add-in''' edition for Microsoft Project and Microsoft Excel '''source plan''' types and via the '''Standalone''' edition for '''ALL''' available '''source plan''' types.
+
−
 
+
−
In order to keep the OnePager Wiki at a manageable size for '''navigation''', we’ve organized the OnePager Wiki so that topics that are focused on '''capabilities''' and '''functions'''.  This means that an article discussing a '''chart editing feature''', for example, uses illustrations/examples from OnePager Pro but applies as well to charts created from Microsoft Excel, Oracle Primavera P6, and Smartsheet.  Where features significantly differ on the basis of '''source plan''' type a separate article for that '''source plan''' type is either embedded in the primary article as a sub-section or a separate article is provided.  Consulting the '''Contents box''' is helpful in finding information specific to a '''source plan''' type.
+
−
 
+
−
The '''Contents box''' should be consulted as well to determine if '''source plan''' dependent information is embedded within the article.  Additionally, we recommend reading the beginning of each article in order to get an idea of its scope of coverage.
+
−
 
+
−
====Article Text and Illustrations====
+
−
 
+
−
The OnePager Wiki relies on using screenshots of OnePager '''forms''', '''sub-forms''', '''tabs''', '''sub-tabs''', '''ribbon tool bar tabs''', '''dropdown menus''', '''right-click context menus''', '''checkboxes''', '''left-click selection actions''', '''left-click button actions''', and '''charts'''.
+
−
 
+
−
Text within an article provides an introduction to the screenshot that follows and an explanation of the content of the screenshot below the screenshot itself.  Where lists are provided in the article’s text, these are either numbered or designated in the manner to show a sequence.
+
−
 
+
−
Key words and phrases are in '''bold''' font for emphasis consistently in all OnePager Wiki articles.
+
−
 
+
−
====Article Internal Links====
+
−
 
+
−
Within any OnePager Wiki article there may be various types of '''links''', some of which were discussed above.  These various '''link''' types include '''links '''to:
+
−
 
+
−
:* Subordinate articles in a series
+
−
:* Sub-sections within an article either in the current article you are reading or in another article either in the same series or a different series.
+
−
:* OnePager.com website resources such as:
+
−
:** '''Tutorials'''
+
−
:** '''How To Articles'''
+
−
:** '''OnePager Blog Posts'''
+
−
:** '''Support Resources'''
+
−
:** '''Trouble Ticket Submission Pages'''
+
−
:** '''Emails to Support'''
+
−
:** '''Support Contact Information'''
+
−
:* Microsoft website resources pages
+
−
:* Related Articles (discussed above)
+
−
:* Lists of articles in specified '''Categories''' (discussed in a follow on sub-section)
+
−
 
+
−
'''Links''' are placed in articles where the context of the article is deemed most appropriate for the subject being covered.  Additionally, when several related '''links '''are appropriate, they are represented in '''link tables''' that are centered in the page so they standout.  All '''links''' are underlined and are in '''bold font'''.
+
−
 
+
−
====Scrolling through an Article====
+
−
 
+
−
After accessing the desired OnePager Wiki article page, going through the article is just like reading through any website page in your browser.  Articles are opened at the top of the article at the '''title line''' and typically show the '''title line''' with the upper most portion of the article above the '''Contents box''' if it is created for the article. (Articles with four or more section/sub-section headings have '''Contents boxes'''.)
+
−
 
+
−
Many internal OnePager Wiki '''links''' connect directly to a section or sub-section within an article.  Clicking one of these '''links''' takes you to the top of the section or sub-section in that article.  For this reason we recommend the '''Right-Click''' method of access so that you can return to the '''link '''location by simply closing the browser tab created by the '''Right-Click '''access method.
+
−
 
+
−
===Related Links Sub-Section===
+
−
 
+
−
In the majority of articles there is a high level sub-section at the very end of the article called '''“Related Links”''' which contains '''links''' to several other articles and/or external '''links''' to the OnePager.com website where further information on the subject can be found.  These '''links''' are useful for gaining further understanding of the primary subject area you are investigating and, in most cases, provide additional examples.  An example of a '''“Related Links”''' sub-section is shown below:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(8A)-05052022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(8A)-05052022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
Our recommendation when using these '''links''' is to access them with the '''Right-Click''' method so that the article you are '''linking''' to is in a new browser tab and you don’t lose your place in the article you are currently referencing.  If you use the '''Left-Click''' method you can always use the browser '''back arrow''' to return to the original article.
+
−
 
+
−
===Other Resources Sub-Section===
+
−
 
+
−
Some articles include a sub-section at the end of the article titled '''“Other Resources”'''.  Typically this sub-section contains '''links''' to OnePager.com website pages or relevant pages in other available websites as shown here:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(8B)-05052022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(8B)-05052022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
These '''links''' are particularly useful when a quick overview of a subject is desired.
+
−
 
+
−
===Categories===
+
−
 
+
−
At the very end of each OnePager Wiki article, after the '''“Related Links”''' sub-section, there is a sub-section labeled '''“Categories”'''.  '''Left '''or '''Right-clicking''' on any '''“Category” link''' takes you to a OnePager Wiki page that lists all articles indexed within that '''“Category”''' in alphabetical order.  The alphabetical list of articles in the selected '''“Category” '''includes all articles in the OnePager Wiki; so articles from all available OnePager product series versions are listed.
+
−
 
+
−
The '''“Category”''' section of a typical article is shown below:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(9)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(9)-05022022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
Clicking any of the '''links''' in the table of '''Category links''' at the end of an article generates the alphabetical list of related article '''links''' as shown below in the sample page:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(10)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(10)-05022022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
'''Left''' or '''Right-clicking''' any of the '''links''' in the '''“Category”''' page takes you directly to that article.  Please note that the page above show related articles from all relevant OnePager product series versions.
+
−
 
+
−
===The Search Function===
+
−
 
+
−
There are two '''search windows''' provided with the OnePager Wiki.  The first is available on the '''Main Page''' as shown here:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(11)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(11)-05022022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
The second is the '''page search''' as shown below for a typical OnePager Wiki page:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(12)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(12)-05022022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
The results of a search on any '''“search argument”''' returns '''links''' to articles where the '''search argument''' appears in the article’s '''title''' and where the '''search argument''' appears in the '''text''' of the article itself as illustrated below:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(13)-05022022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(13)-05022022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
The '''“Search”''' function in the OnePager Wiki returns '''ALL''' matches found in the OnePager Wiki.  Since the OnePager Wiki consists of articles for four (4) OnePager product series versions, all articles and text matches for all versions are returned.  Typically, searching on a '''capability''', '''function''', '''feature''', '''form''', or '''tab''' '''search argument''' returns a large number of references.
+
−
 
+
−
References returned from a typical '''search''' returns many pages of '''links'''.  In most cases the order of '''links''' returned for '''Page title matches''' is by the date of last update.  Accordingly, the order is usually from the oldest OnePager product series version to the newest (i.e., Version 6.0 to 7.1).  Given this organization, you may have to page through the '''search result pages '''to find specifically what you need.  The tool for paging through the '''search results pages''' is supported by controls at the bottom of the '''search results '''page as shown here:
+
−
 
+
−
<center>[[File:W71-1_1-71-(14)-05042022.png]]</center>
+
−
<center>W71-1_1-71-(14)-05042022.png</center>
+
−
 
+
−
Typically twenty (20) entries per page is used most often.
+
−
 
+
−
==Other Tools==
+
−
 
+
−
On the upper right side of each OnePager Wiki page below the OnePager Wiki logo is a set of '''links''' to various pages in the OnePager.com website.  You can access these OnePager.com website pages from any page in the OnePager Wiki where there are no convenient '''links''' provided.  This set of '''links''' is shown below from the OnePager Wiki '''Main Page''':

Introduction

This article is focused on using the Column Splitting feature with OnePager Bundle Standalone and imported Asana source plans.

About Splitting and Parsing Fields

The OnePager column splitting feature allows you to duplicate task bars when a task in your Asana source plan is assigned to multiple resources (or anything else). Because assignments from Asana often are comma-delimited, this feature enables OnePager to parse the comma-delimited list and create a unique task bar for each instance in the comma-separated list.

Split Resource Names Example

Say you want to use color-codes on task bars/milestone symbols based upon your Asana source plan’s Assigned to column as shown below:

P72-24 5 3-72-(1)-11022023.png

Some of the entries in the Assigned to column consist of multiple, comma-separated items and some tasks only used one resource. Without the column splitting feature, a chart created from these data and assigned task bar/milestone symbol colors based upon the Assigned to column looks like this:

OnePager, in this case, treats the entire string as an individual Assigned to value. To provide more flexibility in displaying task bars that have multiple resources assigned, OnePager supports the concept of a column splitting. This feature recognizes comma-separated values in a designated column and creates a separate task bar for each of the comma-separated values.

Enabling Splitting

To use this feature requires turning ON the feature in the Asana Template Properties form you intend to use to make the chart. The setting must be turned ON before the chart is created so launch OnePager Bundle from the desktop icon, click the NEW button on the OnePager Bundle Start form to access the OnePager choices form, select your Asana source plan, and type in the chart's title as shown here:

When you click the Next> button at the bottom of the form, OnePager accesses the second page of the OnePager choices form shown below:

Clicking the Edit current template button accesses the current Template Properties form. Navigate to the Field Mappings tab on the form, check the Enable splitting on: checkbox to ON and (in this example) select the Assigned To column from the dropdown list provided. The results are shown here:

Click the Save and use button to complete the process and close the current Template Properties form returning you to the second page of the OnePager choices form show above.

Split Resources in the Chart

Clicking the Create new chart button completes the process and creates the chart with the column splitting feature in use. The chart with splitting looks like this:

In the chart with column splitting shown above, there are now several more task bars in the Chart Editor than there were before. The task bar for Plate Movement is now split into two (2) separate task bars, one for each of the two resources assigned. The task bar for Centrifugal Barrier is now split into three (3) separate task bars, one for each of the three resources that were assigned to this task in the Asana source plan. Each of the resources has a unique color assigned. Each of the resources appears by itself in the Legend. The Legend title shows the column name that is used for splitting the columns.

With this feature, you can use column splitting just like any other column by using the dropdowns in the Template Properties form or Chart Properties form to assign colors, highlight task bars and milestone symbols, and to define and label rows and swimlanes.

Splitting Resources and Task Links

When task bars with Data-Driven or manual Task Links are split, the Task Links (Data-Driven and manual) are not shown. Further, the Task Links that are now hidden and do not have entries in the Where are My Links? form.
