i’m trying to print a schedule, in the header i need to show (gmt +3:00) but no matter i did, i am not able to make the + symbol to appear. always end up with (gmt 3:00).

is it possible to use user fields as variables in the layout, or maybe there are other solutions? since the length of the “project name” field is limited, and sometimes i need to use a long project name in the layout when printing.

claudio martins moraes. hi claudio - are you referring to a time-scaled logic diagram? if so, you can do that in visualizer. goto tools->visualizer and build one in there.]]>

hi,

how do you solve the problem that all of your screenshots have in the yellow group title?
i mean: the wording has been cut, so how would you solve this?
i would never print such a layout with a cut and unreadable project title .

thanks.

has anyone been able to figure out a way to get the primary baseline name to print [the baseline is a ‘variable’ that can be selected in the header/footers – but not primary/tertiary or secondary].

hi all. apologies if this query has already been raised but i did not see it as i scanned through. is it possible to change the colour of certain columns. for example, if i include columns for baseline start and finish dates as well as current start and finish dates is it possible to highlight only the current start and finish columns to distinguish them?

many thanks

johnny

i’m trying to print a schedule that has all of the margins set at 0.25. everything looks good in print preview and when i actually print, to either pdf or hard copy, it prints with only the left side having the thin margin. all others leave lots of white area. is there anything i can do to fix this?

how do you handle report options when you have multiple projects for one client? we typically have a footer line that has the client name, then below that the project name, then below that the type of schedule. i have tried using the project id but that has to be different for each project. is there a code i can insert into a custom label that will pull the eps title?

evan. i had a similar issue with more than specified white area in the right and bottom margin settings. changing the screen resolution in the display settings fixed the issue. i wouldn't have thought of this connection had i not remembered changing the screen resolution couple of weeks ago. can anyone let me know how the screen resolution overwrites the print settings in p6? or was it the re-logging which i had to do after restoring the previous resol. setting that addressed the issue?]]>

prasad, this happens when you are not showing the gantt chart in your layout, then you try to print. since the gantt chart is not on-screen, there are no options to configure how it will print. first, display the gantt chart in your layout, then goto print preview and you will see the options.

hi there
i have a layout that shows activities collapsed to the summary wbs level and i can see the bars i wish to see on the screen, however when i go to print it, it will only print the name of the wbs and not the bars? i have the print gantt chart ticked in the options page.
thanks in advance.

in reply to jeff.

hi jeff,

1) goto view->table font and row – you can set the table row heights in there.
2) i like a 2 line timescale myself. right-click in the gantt chart, and choose timescale. set your timescale there. also if you are trying to print this, make sure you go to the options tab in the page setup screen. you’ll have some timescale options there as well.

im hoping you can shed some light on how to over come these two issues.

1) how do i expand the bar height on the gantt chart. my issue is activity name is tagged center under bar lables so that it sits on the bar rather then below it or to either side. gantt chart bar is to narrow for font and if i reduce font to fit its to hard to read.

2) how do i manipulate timescle info on the gantt chart. currently im using three lines for timescale format with type = calendar and date interval = month/financial period. this gives me top line = year middle line = month and bottom line = year, month, day (2014-02-01) where does this data on the bottom line come from? my issue is it only shows up in certain months and not in others.

in reply to david.

david,
in your layout, goto view->group and sort and check the box labeled “hide if empty” – this will remove any wbs that has no activities under it due to the filter. that should clean things up.

]]>

by: david

thu, 21 aug 2014 03:40:45 +0000

this is good, but i am struggling to find out how i can print only those activities that have been filtered. at present the print shows those activities and all the wbs titles where the activities do not match the filter. this view is very cluttered and distracting, and i would like to print without the superfluous wbs titles. fine to keep the wbs titles for the filtered activities, but not the others.

mon, 30 jun 2014 00:55:27 +0000

nice clear instructions mary and the final step in this process would be to save these settings with a layout in the format needed, as a few people commented. so save a new layout for different paper sizes, different headers, footers etc. otherwise next time when you open another activity layout, the setup you just did is permanently lost.
