Make the schedule more compact
How do I get a multi-page schedule down to one page?

Entered percent complete changes to different value
When using a Percent Complete SmartColumn, I enter a percent complete value, e.g. 72%, and the value is then displayed as another value, e.g. 80%. Why is that and how can this be corrected?

Focus on certain months in a year
Are you able to focus in on certain months within a year, (i.e. – adjust the timescale) so that the timescale will be more compact in outlying years/months granting more space in the area around time now?

Toolbox drawing tools are grayed out

Erase blue boxes around symbol descriptions
