Optimizes Display of Overlapping Nodes
Overlapping activities are usually highlighted by a red underscore in one row. But how do you know how much the activities overlap each other? Optimize the view by arranging the overlapping activities one below the other. The row width will be adjusted automatically.
Layers and Nodes: Different Time Frames
An activity can comprise of several data records such as the set date pair "earliest start" and "latest finish" in project plans. Each pair of dates is represented by a layer and the whole activity by a node – recognizable by freely selectable attributes such as a light background for the activity. If dates are modified, you can either modify a layer (extend. shorten, move, delete) or the complete node (depending on your new planning requirements).
Phantoms Display – but Don't Define
Make use of the VARCHART JGantt phantom if you want to check the effects of your modifications first. When moving a phantom, the effect on the other data will be shown immediately, but not yet committed. Only when you release the phantom will the modification be carried out.
Symbols - Also Used in the Table
The completion of activities can be indicated by a modifiication of the layer color - or by symbols in the table. A completed task coud be highlighted by a green hook, a delayed task by a red exclamation mark and a task in process by a blue dot. Of course you can choose symbols you like – traffic lights, smilies etc. Please note that as soon as the data are modified these tags change automatically according to the predefined conditions.
Zooming Interactively Into the Timescale
The timescale can be spread or minimized per mouse. Divide the time scale into different sections with different resolutions to concentrate upon a certain time span without losing sight of past or future time segments.
