Roadmap Drawing List

To access, click Roadmap Drawings from the side navigation menu.

  • The drawing list interface allows you to filter Roadmap drawings by:
Image:FOrganizations.png, Image:FUsers.png and Image:FPrograms.png
  • Upon log-in, these filters default to the logged-in user's organization and user name, with the drawing list (located beneath the filter boxes) showing only drawings associated with the logged-in user.

Filtering Drawings

  • As you navigate the Web Tool the filters will remember changes to the selections that you make:
  • Click [Show All] for Organizations to view all drawings for all organizations. Users and Occupations/Programs will automatically [Show All].
  • Click [Show All] for Users to view all drawings by all users for your organization.
  • Click on any single Organization or User name to view corresponding results.
  • Select multiple Organizations, Users or Occupations/Programs by holding down the CTRL key to view corresponding results.
  • Click on a specific Occupation/Program to show all users associated with that drawing.
  • All drawings are listed in alphabetic order by drawing Occupation/Program title underneath the filter boxes.
  • Each drawing reflects who created and last modified the drawing.
  • Click the Image:MyDrawings.png icon above the drawing list to restore default settings for the logged in user.

Search Bar

  • The search bar, Image:Search.png, located above the drawing list filters allows you to search drawing titles, keywords in drawing content, and user names. Click Search or hit Enter/Return to submit the search query.

Drawing Versions

  • When a new drawing is created, the drawing title and "Version 1" is automatically added to the drawing list.
  • Versions of each drawing are listed beneath the drawing title in numeric order.
  • Each version has two links listed to the right of the version number:
  • wrench.png Version Settings, and
  • pencil.png Draw/Edit Version or picture.png View Version
wrench.png Version Settings provides a summary of the drawing Occupation/Program, version number, who created and modified that version, a link to share that specific version with others, and the ability to delete this version. View Version Settings and Deleting Drawing Versions for more information.
pencil.png Draw/Edit Version means the drawings is available to be edited, copied, and/or published. pencil.png is displayed when that version has never been lock.png "Locked" or report.png "Published". The word Draft is stamped as a watermark in the background of the drawing.
picture.png View Version means the drawings can no longer be edited, but can be viewed and copied into a new version. picture.png is displayed when that version has been or currently is lock.png "Locked" or report.png "Published". If currently published, the drawing canvas will not have any watermark stamps in the background. If previously published, the drawing is stamped Outdated and you can either "page_copy.png copy this version" to edit the drawing, or re-publish the drawing by clicking "report_go.png publish this version" again.
  • The report.png Published Version icon will appear directly to the right of the version number if it is the currently published version. View Publishing Drawings for more information.

ADA/504 Accessibility Compliance

Viewing Roadmaps

  • The transition to using the Canvas technology for rendering roadmaps also enables end-users and Roadmap creators with vision impairments to zoom the view of each Roadmap to a certain extent.
  • Using the browser's zoom functionality a Roadmap viewer can zoom a Roadmap in or out of normal view.
  • Zooming out too far will cause certain components of the Roadmap to appear broken, or missing color.

Text-Only View

  • A URL to an Accessible (text-only/ADA Compliant) version of your drawing is available in the cog.png Drawing Properties page, accessible from the drawing list or VERSIONS menu.
  • The URL for the drawing will always have the word "text" within the URL, like this:
http://oregon.ctepathways.org/c/text/lcc_drafting.html
  • The "Accessible" URL will always link to the published version of that drawing.
  • This view eliminates all the graphical components of the roadmaps, and is suitable for viewing in any browser or using a screen reader.
  • Include a link to this URL on your web page where you have embedded the full Roadmap drawing so that visitors can access a version of your drawing that will be compatible with screen readers.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: In order for a Roadmap to function in this view, it must be created using Connections that link boxes and content together. If a drawing does not use connections, it will still be visible in this view, however it will be difficult to navigate. It is the responsibility of the Roadmap creator to assure their Roadmaps are created in a way to support this representation.
