51 Gantt Scrolling Performance on OSX

Finally starting to feel productive in ProjectLibre but now my Gantt has grown larger than my screen I find that scrolling is really very sluggish. I'm running on OSX with plenty of free memory. Performance in all other apps is perfectly fine. The only other app with very slow scrolling is Aptana which I believe is also Java based? I've tried running ProjectLibre with the command line arguments: "java -Xmx2048m -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true -jar projectlibre.jar" but this has made no difference.

52 zero duration importing MS Project XML FILE

Hi folks

 

I use ProjectLibre on Mac OS. No problem so far. Yesterday I received a MS Project file from a colleague. Imported it via "open project" dialog, but "duration" field for every task is set to zero. So, importing from MS Project is pretty unusable for me.

 

any hint?

Thanks in advance

56 Setting a date to occur X number of days before another date

This should be simple, but I can't seem to make the following happen:

I have a project plan for construction.  The majority of the tasks follow in a linear fasion (dig the hole, then pour the foundation, then installl window well, then backfill).  Those work fine.  But I need a set of deadlines for ordering material.

I want the deadline for ordering the window wells (for example) to be 5 days before backfill.

So whatever date backfill works out to be, I want the window well order deadline to be 5 days before.

How do I do this?

57 Week number

Hi,

I am new with ProjectLibre but I can tell right now "it's a great software !" :).

The calendar tool is missing the week number, widely used by large organizations

 

Thanks in advance

58 change working calendar input greyed out Hi, I've just started using the program this morning. It's great and I know I must be doing something stupid. When I create a new calendar for "evening and weekend working" I click on S for Saturdays. Instead of being able to input hours all the boxes are greyed out. I can get enabled boxes if I click the bottom of the 3 radio buttons. However, if I make any changes and click OK they aren't saved. I could post a screenshot later. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Paul batman_84_uk Global User Group, European User Community Nov, 09, 2014
59 Spanish language

Has anyone experienced issues with the spanish translation?

Accented characters missing in version 1.5.9 

I also suspect that there are some bugs related to it, when I insert a task, that one and the ones below don't get renumbered automatically, also there is some strange behaviour when indenting.

It would also be nice to know hoy to download the EN version rather than the SP one, most of my Projects need to be in EN

Details

OS: Win 8.1

Java version: 8, Actualización 25 (compilación 1.8.0_25-b18)

Thanks,

Marcos

60 Limiting Gantt charts start and end date when printing

How can I control the size of the Gantt charts?  My first task starts Oct 15th and the last task ends on Jan 20th 2015.  When I preview or print, I would be able to see everything on 1 page (width) if the gantt charts was not padded out with Aug 14 and Sep 14 up front   and then Feb through Nov afterwards.   I am doing landscape with 0 margins.
