After DevExpress WinForms Gantt Control released, many users are more confused, this version of the current <Scheduler> The main difference between the Gantt view what is?
In this article, we will discuss the difference between a small series of new WinForms Gantt control with existing Scheduler Gantt view, and a detailed description Why Gantt controls are DevExpress WinForms v19.2 version outstanding highlights!
Backstory - Scheduler Gantt view
Before the introduction of the new WinForms Gantt controls, review the release a few years ago DevExpress Scheduler (v11.2) Gantt view, at that time that the method Gantt controls on the market is the fastest Scheduler leverage existing code base.
After the release of this product can be clearly seen, Gantt function is not limited to the endless task immobilized on a time axis, and is substantially fixed hierarchical text data on its side. Developers really need to use a Gantt chart of the requirements will be more features --Scheduler controls can not provide. Although many people use Gantt View can meet their business needs, but some people are still requirements for product overhaul (or create a new product), in order to fully meet the requirements.
And any other customer-oriented services, like technical team had to make tough decisions and prioritize. Existing Scheduler Gantt view is not perfect, but fully functional Gantt controls demand restrictions.
the difference
As previously mentioned, in terms of functionality, Scheduler of Gantt View comes with a limited feature set. For example, it lacks the visual elements, such as a milestone summary task and the like, there is no easy method of these elements can be incorporated in a particular Scheduler View without affecting other elements. For standalone WinForms Gantt controls, such restrictions do not exist.
Scheduler Gantt View Another major limitation is the integrated tree view. Gantt chart view, the side panel is called Resource Tree, because of its bearer resource, and the main control region presentation "Appointments", which are two separate elements Scheduler, in real Gantt chart, two regions show data from the same source. One way to display "Appointment" Resource Tree data but requires a lot of custom code. The same independent WinForms Gantt controls do not have these limitations, it can provide real Gantt experience for you easily.
WinForms Gantt TreeList controls are direct descendants of its built-in functions and deriving from TreeList controls (e.g. select hierarchy switch to single column or similar functions TreeView).
Currently, DevExpress Gantt control does not support directly importing and exporting from Microsoft Project, but you can save the file as a Microsoft Project XML files, parses the data entered directly into the Gantt control.
The new Scheduler Gantt View Gantt than the much faster, in short, Gantt View is not intended to show hundreds of tasks, although rarely seen such a complex project schedule, but the new Gantt chart control can be effective handling very large data sets.
