A page in DoView can contain a variety of Objects (steps, indicators, text etc), it can be various sizes. The page size is set when the page is created.

 

Pages are viewed in the main page window. A DoView model (file) is made up of a number of pages. All the pages in a DoView model are listed in the page list. You move between pages (page-jump between them) by: 1) clicking on the page you want to see in the page list; or 2) by clicking on a page-jump which has been set within a step, text object, indicator, question or item.

A page is create by clicking on New Page in the Small Page List Tool Bar at the bottom of the page list (on the right-hand side of the screen). A page is deleted by clicking on Delete Page.

 

Pages have a small color block on their left-hand side. The color of this can be set by doing a Right-click > color on the page name.

 

The small Page List Tool Bar which is at the bottom of the Page List is shown below. The New Page button contains the size of the page which is about to be created. Clicking on the small down arrow to the right of the New page button, firstly provides a list of the page sizes already included in the model. Secondly, other sized pages can be created by selecting Other sizes...

 

DoView models can include the standard compact 1 x1 default page size or many other page sizes up to large poster sizes. See details in the section on Page sizes. Many page sizes in DoView are specified in terms of the number of compact 1 x 1 pages you can fit onto the page. For instance, a 2 x 2 page will fit two 'columns' and two 'rows' of compact 1 x 1 pages (i.e. four 1 x1 pages in total). If you wish, you can firstly build your outcomes model with compact pages (which means that you can always work with them when dataprojected and print them on normal sizes paper) and then clone them all onto one or more large pages for printing as posters to Ledger/A3 or larger sizes using Print as PDF. For more information see the Section on Why You Should Use Compact Pages.
