In most cases you will want to add text to certain types of Gantt bars. Note: If you want to add text that is unique to each task type, type or select a custom text field, such as Text1, Text2 , or Text3.
Text that you enter into these fields from other views is automatically added to the Gantt bars. Click the other bars to add project information to them, being careful to point to the bars and not to the space surrounding them. If more than one bar is displayed for each task, only the information for the topmost bar can be displayed by clicking Bar on the Bar Styles group.
To make the bars in the chart part of the Gantt Chart view easier to review, you may want to adjust the height of Gantt bars. Tip: You can also double-click within the chart portion of a Gantt Chart view, but not on individual bars.
When you link tasks, Project displays link lines on a Gantt Chart view that show the task dependencies of the linked tasks. You can change the way link lines appear or hide the link lines. Tip: You can also double-click the link line between tasks in the chart portion of a Gantt Chart view, but not on individual bars.
Under Links , click the type of link line that you want to use. If you choose the first type of link, then the link lines will not appear. Note: If you want to change the relationship between the tasks such as changing a finish-to-start task dependency to a start-to-start task dependency you need to change the task dependency type.
Display task names for individual Gantt bars on a summary task bar roll up. Tip: You can format the Gantt views automatically using a wizard. You can instantly change the formatting of items such as the critical path, display link lines between dependent tasks, or select color options and patterns for Gantt bars representing summary tasks, subtasks, or milestones.
To start the wizard, on the Format menu, click Gantt Chart Wizard. Keep in mind that any changes you make to one Gantt view does not change the look of another Gantt view. To call attention to task bars on a Gantt view, such as a milestone or summary task, you can change their color, shape, or pattern to separate them from other bars of a particular type.
Under Start , Middle , and End , click the shapes, types or pattern, and colors for the bar. Some categories have only a start shape such as milestone , while others have a start shape, middle bar, and end shape such as summary tasks. You can also change the color, shape, or pattern of an individual Gantt bar, rather than a type of bar, if you want to highlight a specific task in your plan.
You can also double-click an individual bar within the right side of a Gantt view, but not in the space between the bars. On the Format menu, click Bar , and then click the Bar Shape tab. Under Start , Middle , and End , select shapes, types or pattern, and colors for the bar. Double-click the other bars to format them, being careful to point to the bars and not to the space surrounding them. If more than one bar is displayed for each task, only the topmost bar can be formatted by clicking Bar on the Format menu.
Individual bar formatting overrides the Gantt bar formatting for a particular category of tasks. For example, if you click Bar Styles on the Format menu and format Gantt bars for noncritical tasks as black, you can still click Bar on the Format menu and format a selected noncritical task bar as red. The Bar command only affects the bar you select. If you want to spotlight a particular task category that is not represented by its own Gantt bar, you can create a new Gantt bar.
Click Paste Row to restore the cut row, select the row below where you want to insert the copied row, click Paste Row again, and then modify the copy.
You can add specific project information, such as task names, resource names, completion percentages, and start dates, to bars on a Gantt view. In the Task Name field, select the task whose Gantt bar you want to annotate. On the Format menu, click Bar , and then click the Bar Text tab. You can also double-click an individual bar within the chart portion of a Gantt view, but not in the space between the bars.
To change the format of dates on Gantt bars, click Layout on the Format menu, and then click the date format you want in the Date format box. If more than one bar is displayed for each task, only the information for the topmost bar can be displayed by clicking Bar on the Format menu.
If you want to display task names or milestones for important tasks on a summary task bar, you can roll up only the tasks you specify. Rolling up tasks this way displays only summary task bars with their rolled-up subtasks; tasks that are not specified as rolled up do not appear on the summary task bar.
In the Task Name field, select the task that you want to roll up to its summary task bar. Click Task Information , and then click the General tab.
Select the Roll up Gantt bar to summary check box, and then click OK. You can quickly see an overview of the scheduled finish dates for selected subtasks.
