The Task Grid
The tasks are shown in a multi-column table. All columns are read only, but you can expand/collapse the task
hierarchy, and move the columns.
The Task Grid on the Gantt View tab is synchronized with the Task View on the Tasks tab.
The Gantt Chart
The Gantt Chart displays a colored bar chart illustrating your project status. Each task takes up one row. The
horizontal axis represents the time span of the project, broken down into increments (such as days, weeks,
months, and years) and the vertical axis represents the project tasks. Tasks can run sequentially, in parallel, or
overlapping.
The Status Icons
The Status icons on the Gantt View tab are slightly different from the Status icons on the Tasks tab. Two separate
bars are drawn for each task, showing planned against actual relationships. The color is used to differentiate the
early (blue), on-time (green), late (red), and planned (grey) portions of the task. Dots mark the planned start and
end dates.
Placing the mouse pointer over a Status icon shows a tooltip explaining the task status.
