task, then press Delete.
Tasks
Column Set The Column Set drop-down enables you choose one of three
pre-defined column sets to display in the Tasks view; Basic, Standard or
Extended. Alternatively you can create a customized column set in the
Choose
TimeLiner Columns
(page 615) by clicking Choose Columns, then selecting
Custom when you have set up your preferred column set.
Filter by Status The Filter by Status drop-down enables you to filter tasks
based on their status. Filtering a task temporarily hides the task from the Task
and Gantt Chart views, but does not make any changes to the underlying data
structure.
Rules Click to display the
TimeLiner Rules Dialog Box (page 615).
Show Hierarchy Clicking the Show Hierarchy check box 'flattens' the
hierarchical structure shown in the Tasks view.
