The Dynamic Gantt Chart (v8.xx)
The Gantt Chart is used to graphically display the project’s timeline including its phases, tasks, milestones and constraints.
The dynamic Gantt Chart can be used to scroll forward and back along the project timeline by clicking and holding directly on chart (not on an item!) and scroll. The time scale can also be used to zoom out, simply double click directly. Use the zoom icons on the toolbar to zoom back in.
The elements used in the Gantt chart, in either style are:
Item | Style |
Phases | Black bar delimited by two black markers. |
Tasks | Blue bars. If a task is in progress, the percentage of progress will be displayed as a green bar on the task bar. Once progress reaches 100%, the entire task bar will turn green. If the task is marked as "Completed", then it will turn green. |
Milestones | Blue diamonds. If a milestone is completed, it will turn green. |
Critical path | When the "Critical Path" is active, all critical tasks, milestones and constraints are displayed in orange. Progression is still displayed, but in a darker tone of red |
The Genius planner Gantt chart offers various tools to organize your project plan. These tools are accessible from the toolbar and the menu options.
