Default Units used for row heights and field widths


What units does MSP use when defining row heights and field widths in the table definitions? It would be useful to know when planning things for printing...

For column width - my guess is characters. For Row height, my guess is lines of text. The row height command shows in the Table Definition dialog but I don't believe there is an individual row height command like in Excel.

I bet you are right...kind of makes sense after experimenting. It makes it kind of hard though to plan for Gantt Chart print-outs...I have to spend way too much time setting up print-outs and image copies for briefings, etc...one of the main draw-backs of MSP that I've found.

In setting row height, I was just referring to the setting in Table Definitions for all rows in the table.

Create a custom view that is used ONLY for printing. After printing switch to another view.
