(RESOLVED) Split screen in the task view possible?

Question

As title says, is it possible to split the screen in the task window?

It would be much easier especially when you want to look at the dependency of a specific task but then need to get back to it. Having a split screen, you would have in the same window, the tasks and then its dependency.

Answer 1

Browser-Ice,

When you say "task view" I assume you mean the Gantt Chart view and yes you can do a split screen. If you are interested in dependencies associated with a specific task I suggest you use the Relationship Diagram in the lower pane. When you select a task in the upper pane (Gantt Chart), the Relationship Diagram will show all dependencies for that task.

You might also try the Task Path feature found under, Gantt Chart Format > Bar Styles

Or, the Inspect feature found under, Task > Tasks

Or, a custom filter using a Flag field to isolate desired tasks.

Lots of choices.

Browser-Ice,

You're welcome and thanks for the feedback.

Answer 3

I like the Inspect one as it allows to switch the view back and forth between the task and its dependencies

Thx. I think I will use instead.
