OmniPlan 2.2 updates all drawing and user interface elements for high DPI devices such as the MacBook Pro with Retina display, along with the latest bug fixes. Note: OmniPlan 2.2 is the last release planned that will support Mac OS X 10.6 and 32 bit processors. Subsequent releases will require Mac OS X 10.7.

###New Features:

• Added full support for high DPI devices such as the MacBook Pro with Retina display.

###Bug Fixes

• “MobileMe” has been closed by Apple and deprecated in our Sync UI.
• The critical path highlight no longer draws over Gantt bars on QuickLook previews and PNG exports.
• Fixed a crash cropping printouts by date the second or subsequent time you visit the Print Panel.
• Editing the print cropping dates now refreshes the preview.
• Improved labeling of dates in “Undetermined” projects whose normal work weeks have discontiguous days off.
• Fixed a crash that could be triggered by configuring Calendar Server sync actions.
• Fixed a WebDAV sync compatibility issue with http://livedisk.df.eu/.
• Fixed a task duplication problem. Using change tracking to reject the insertion of tasks, then undo to reverse the rejection could cause sync to create duplicates of the tasks.
• Fixed a date caching error for dates before the Gregorian calendar was adopted in 1582.
• Fixed syncing errors when changes brought in via Update force local unpublished inserted objects to change their Unique IDs. Assignments and dependencies could be left pointing at the wrong object.
• The Timeline view now handles document background color changes correctly.
• Don't enable auto-leveling when importing files. The user should see the data as it exists in the file before deciding if OmniPlan should move tasks around.
• The “Automatically Level Resources” setting is now change tracked and synchronized.
• Fixed a task scheduling regression that could lead to an infinite loop.

What’s new in OmniPlan 2: No Pain, All Gain

OmniPlan 2 is the same painless project management you've come to expect with loads of new features—including over-the-air collaboration.

Collaboration: Sync, Publish, Edit, and Track Changes

Use a WebDAV server to sync your projects between resources. Then, publish your tasks automatically upon saving. Grab new changes via Bonjour or at a specified interval. (You can also publish and update manually, of course.) Publish tasks and pull in updates from a server-based calendar. Export your plan automatically in any supported format. Execute custom AppleScripts from within the app.

Use Apple's Calendar Server to pull in free times and busy times for your resources. Import vacation and holiday schedules from a web-hosted calendar. Configure to check for updates periodically or via Bonjour.

Keep track of the changes to the project with visual change tracking. See your own edits on a personal project or see the synced changes on a team project. Accept and reject changes on a task-by-task basis or all at once.

Scheduling

Fiscal years are now supported in addition to calendar years so you can choose whether your tasks are due in Q2 or Spring. Schedule projects backwards from a fixed end date. Create, save, and compare your projects against multiple baselines. Highlight the critical path to individual milestones in the new Project: Milestones inspector. Resource schedules now have a start and/or end date.

Tasks and Resources

Split your tasks to schedule around interruptions. Create hammock tasks that have start and end dates based on prerequisites that you define. Effort and Duration can now be unlinked. Default task and resource attributes can be configured per project or in a template for faster task creation. Color-code tasks based on their resource. Choose independent display formats for duration and effort values.

Filtering

Save multiple, commonly-used filters for quick re-use later. Configure publishing actions to use filters.

Printing Options

Headers and footers are now more flexible. Expand or collapse all notes and task and resource groups. Page margins support mirroring on facing pages. Customize the margin above and below the header and footer.

• Integrated the latest version of mpxj from mpxj.sourceforge.net. Most notably this adds support for microsoft Project 2010 MPP files, and improves compatibility with 2007 MSPDI and earlier formats.
• Importing from MPX, MPP, Microsoft Project XML, and exporting to MPX and Microsoft Project XML now requires at least Java 1.5 rather than 1.4.
