Tom's Planners Dissertation Wizard

The new school year is about to start and a lot of students are dreading the project of writing their dissertation. With help from Roy Horn, the expert on the field of dissertations, we have created a series of blog post that will really help every student tackle this hurdle without getting lost in the work that is before them!

Of course there are lots of books and blogs about writing dissertations, the trouble is that it is such a large task that students often don't know where to start. What makes this series special is the very extensive project template that Roy has created and that will give students a great head start and will help save time and lots of energy. In every post Roy focuses on a part of this template and explains the steps that need to be taken.

For students who want to start using this handy Tom's Planner dissertation schedule, we have created a blank version so you can schedule your own time!

New Feature: Create Groups from Existing Rows

This new feature will help you organize your thoughts even better then you could before! From now on you can select rows and use them to create a new group. This will make it easier to organize your schedule. Together with the feature that lets you move rows along the colum area, this new feature makes the column area even more flexible.

How does it work? As everything in Tom's Planner, very easy! Just hold the ctrl button and select specific rows or the shift key to select a series of rows. When you're done, right click in the column area and choose 'create group using rows'. That's it!
