Relink - relinks the selected task with your scheduling software. You will only be able to
relink the parent task, i.e. the task with the same name as the link. You will be prompted
to choose the link to attach the task to, as you may have more than one link set up.
Linked tasks are synchronized with the external schedule, and you cannot edit start and
end dates. See the Select Link dialog box for more information on linking tasks.
Unlink - breaks the link between the selected task and an external schedule, enabling
you to manually edit start and end dates. You will only be able to unlink the parent task,
i.e. the task with the same name as the link. However, your task is no longer
synchronized with the external schedule.
Note:
For editing of dates, it is recommended to do this in the scheduling software and then
Synchronize Tasks from Link.
Check - validates the schedule, by identifying items that have not been included in any
task, are duplicated in multiple tasks or, are in overlapping tasks.
Tools - enables you to quickly create your own schedule, based on model layers,
topmost items, or selection sets.
Add Comment - adds a comment to the task. See “ Commenting ” for more information
on comments.
Rename - renames the task. When the text field becomes active, enter the new name
then press Enter to save it.
You can use multi-selection (i.e. holding down Shift or Ctrl) to perform most commands on several tasks
at once. For example, should you need to delete all tasks, select the first task, then hold down Shift and
select the last task, then press Delete.
