| − | ==Overview - New Features and Upgrades== | + | ==Introduction== |
| | | | |
| − | 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.
| + | This article is focused on using the ''' Column Splitting''' feature with OnePager Bundle '''Standalone''' and '''imported''' Asana '''source plans'''. |
| | | | |
| − | These new '''capabilities and features are''':
| + | ==About Splitting and Parsing Fields== |
| | | | |
| − | :* Multiple Swimlane Levels
| + | 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 Smart Text Optimization Feature
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | The new '''upgrades and enhancements''' are:
| + | ===Split Resource Names Example=== |
| | | | |
| − | :* Refreshed User Interface | + | 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: |
| − | :* 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''':

| | + | <center>P72-24_5_3-72-(1)-11022023.png</center> |
| | | | |
| − | ==New Features and Capabilities==
| + | 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: |
| | | | |

| | + | <center>P72-24_5_3-72-(5)-11272023.png</center> |
| | | | |
| − | 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.
| + | 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. |
| | | | |
| − | ====About Multiple Swimlane Levels==== | + | ===Enabling Splitting=== |
| | | | |
| − | 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:
| + | 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: |
| | | | |
| − | <center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(20)-03102020.png]]</center> | + | <center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2A)-11022023.png]]</center> |
| − | <!--<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(20)-03102020.png<center>-->
| + | <center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2A)-11022023.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'''.
| + | When you click the '''Next>''' button at the bottom of the form, OnePager accesses the second page of the '''OnePager choices''' form shown below: |
| | | | |
| − | '''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:
| + | <center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2AA)-11022023.png]]</center> |
| | + | <center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2AA)-11022023.png</center> |
| | | | |
| − | <center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(21-1)-08282020.png]]</center>
| + | 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: |
| − | <!--<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(21-1)-08282020.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'''.
| + | <center>[[File:P72-24_5_3-72-(2AAA)-11022023.png]]</center> |
| | + | <center>P72-24_5_3-72-(2AAA)-11022023.png</center> |
| | | | |
| − | '''Sorting''' controls for '''rows''' and '''swimlanes''' are in separate sub-control groups as shown above. | + | 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. |
| | | | |
| − | 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…'''
| + | ===Split Resources in the Chart=== |
| | | | |
| − | The controls shown above for the '''Chart Properties '''form are also found in the distributed '''Template '''form’s '''Rows/Swimlanes''' tab.
| + | 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: |

| | | | |
| − | Detailed information on the new '''Multiple Swimlane Levels''' feature can be found at these links:
| + | 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'''. |
| | | | |
| − | <center>
| + | 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'''. |

| | | | |
| − | ====About The Smart Text Optimization Feature====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 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.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 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.
| |
| − | 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 '''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.

| − | ===Easier Timeline and Gantt Chart Layouts===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ====About Timelines and Gantt Chart Layouts====
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 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:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <center>[[File:P70-0_4-70-(1)-04232020.png]]</center>
| + | |
| − | <!--<!--<center>P70-0_4-70-(1)-04232020.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.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Please note in the illustration above that when the '''Timeline''' radio button is selected that the '''Align tasks on''' window is '''enabled''' as well as the '''Stagger overlapping tasks''' checkbox.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | :a) The '''Align tasks on''' window provides the dropdown list of Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel fields that can be selected to '''group tasks in rows'''.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | :b) The '''Stagger overlapping tasks''' checkbox provides the option to add an additional '''row''' should one or more task bars '''overlap''' one another in a single '''row'''.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The illustration below shows the dropdown list available in the '''Align task on''' window:

| − | ===Easier Task Editing===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ====About Easier Text Editing====
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 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:
