So I can always start new projects with my own information and settings. Same here, love the library, its really helpful. They support is really swift in answering. I had some and they implemented them into newer iterations of the software. You could write the support of Merlin Project ( to take that as a feature request.

Omniplan suffers from the same sort of behaviour and it drives me crazy how difficult it seems to be to navigate speedily via keyboard. Maybe it's just because I'm so used to MS Project. I do understand that Return itself opens up the edit for the task name but frankly I'd see that happening far less than the requirement for a new task. They fixed it already, the newest updates don't show up with that behaviour.įor usability I'd also prefer to be able to hit Enter or Return for a new task - especially so in MindMap view where it seems somewhat tedious to be looking for 'Command-N' in every single instance. Presenting a schedule is generally useless when it comes to a group as detail swamps the message this avoids the necessity of keeping two different elements in sync. I'll look into this more as the immediate transition from MindMap to schedule is a great feature. Most sites that I've worked on offer up 'templates' but they're often little more than lifecycle phase headings and not much more.
#MERLIN PROJECT TEMPLATES SOFTWARE#
I suppose - having seen the feature - that I could build up something similar via OPML and then import (since some other software has that capability) but grabbing snippets of standard activity is fantastic and great for re-use. Omniplan suffers from the same sort of behaviour and it drives me crazy how difficult it seems to be to navigate speedily via keyboard.Īnd the Library is great. Maybe it's just because I'm so used to MS Project. To open an ms project template in merlin, simply change its file ending from.mpt to.mpp and then drag & drop it onto merlin’s application icon. How Merlin Entertainments brought the magic of employer brand consistency. For usability I'd also prefer to be able to hit Enter or Return for a new task - especially so in MindMap view where it seems somewhat tedious to be looking for 'Command-N' in every single instance. team the time that they need to focus on the projects that really matter. Shame that the 'On the Go' is a separate subscription (and the software is itself is subscription) but that debates been had. For all I know it's a limitation of the development software but it would be good to have it fixed (if it's an undesired behaviour rather than a limitation.)

In Kanban view, a mouse-over on items in that view also offers up a fixed-width text box that just looks messy. There is a dialogue box (you need to select some categories) when switching to Kanban that, if you mouse over, has a rather mangled presentation of the text that I suspect is meant to be helpful half of the text is lost and it's not. And, by ugly bits I mean several 'pop-overs' that seem to dominate in the Kanban view.
