Introduction
 |
Using Project Viewer you can visualize projects and events in a clearly arranged manner. Heart of the program is the 4-weeks overview, where up to ten tasks or resources per category can be displayed at the same time (you can manage more of course). The tasks and resources are assigned to categories and can have their own color (only avaliable on color devices). You can select of ten different event types for the presentation of different events.
The data of projects displayed with Project Viewer can be saved in DB 0.2.x-compatible tables (s. documentation Installation section). Using the DB tools you will be able to exchange with Desktop applications.
