We've just posted beta 8, and would appreciate it if you'd download
it, try it out for a bit, and send us some feedback. Beta 7 licenses
expire this weekend, so grab beta 8 to keep using OmniPlan through
November 20th.
Here's a list of some of the new features we've added recently.
Added Total Cost, Total Uses, Total Hours to the Resource Info
inspector, and as optional columns to the resource outline.
Rounded durations are now shown with indicators of how they were
rounded. For instance, typing 5 minutes ("5m") while hours are the
smallest value displayed will result in ">0h" while 55 minutes will
display as "<1h". Full precision is shown while editing.
Sort submenu added under Structure for sorting tasks by any outline
column value.
Mini Pop-Up Calendar added when choosing dates in the outline (not
added yet for dates in the inspectors and sheets).
When "Show Off-Hours" is chosen in View Options, off-hours are now
displayed in gray in the gantt chart. (The color is configurable in
the Project Colors inspector.)
The resource timeline view now supports multiple selection via
command-click.
Added controls to the Calendar View for clearing calendar
customizations and restoring a custom calendar to the defaults. New
outline columns can show which resources have customized calendars
and which do not.
Currency format is now arbitrary.
Added a preference for whether the Return key should create a new row
or not.
Added View menu option for folding multi-line text in the outlines or
not.
Added embedded versioning scheme for Web/HTML templates, so that when
we change the tags for substitution into these formats we can warn
users that their custom templates may be out of date and require
updating.
Added new controls for image export formats to allow export of gantt
or outline or both.
Added leveling options to allow leveling only the selection and to
optionally keep tasks from being rescheduled before a given date.
Added option to display/hide date constraints on the Gantt chart.
Allow adding resource assignments to milestones, since MS Project
allows this. Import/export them correctly to MS Project formats.
Headers and Footers for printing. Currently the header defaults to
the document name but can be changed in the printing controls. The
footer just shows the page number.
