General

• Warning when deleting a Target manually removed

  • Sets the split bar up to the Duration column

  • Fits the schedule to the screen

• Breakdown

  • Can now add prefix to multiple selected summary tasks

  • Bug fixed where breaking down an in-progress activity with a finish date in the past and tasks are not linked would cause an error

  • Doing an Unbreakdown now displays the task bar in the Gantt chart (since it may have been a Summary with the task bards hidden)

Refresh

• After an Update, the Inspector is now automatically invoked

• Optimized the Refresh interface so the functionality works left to right

• Bug fixed when trying to run the Wigglechart when the Wigglechart is open. The Wigglechart can be run when open, but only if opened via fastProject, otherwise the user will get a warning to close the Wigglechart.

Macro-micro Roll-up

• New “Create Macro from Micro” function added. This will delete all subtasks to a roll-up task while moving external dependencies to the associated roll-up task

• Added an additional test to check for Touchpoints in the macro - these buts be contained within a summary task

• Updated Macro-micro Roll-up documentation

• Added a new function “Find duplicate task names” which finds tasks with the same name that can cause problems with the roll-up

• Added “Display timing analysis” as an option in the initial dialog box

• Documentation updated (V2.0)
