New: ToolsForExcel Distribution – New option to generate the empty sheets

New: ToolsForExcel Distribution – New option to generate the index sheet

Improvement: Creating a file for parent in a non-transparency mode

When creating a file for parent in a non-transparency mode, and if the user selects detailed lines, the following fields will be included as well: THROUGHPUT_PACE, LOCAL_THROUGHPUT, UNITSOFTHROUGHPUT, COMMENT_ABOUT_QUANTITY and VARIABLES_FOR_SETS.

New: ToolsForExcel Gantt – Shifting the Gantt data has been improved

Previously, it was possible to shift a whole row (or several) to the left or to the right, in order to change the period where a task (or several) was scheduled. From this version on, the user has to chose between ‘Global shift’, which open a sub menu and works as before, or ‘Shift’ only, which acts on the selected row(s), but also on the selected column. Selecting the forth column of a row and shifting one step will move the data from the forth column till the last column to a similar period starting at the fifth column, loosing the last data if any. Same operation is available for +1, -1, +10, and -10 steps.
