Hi Paul

Is possible to add the status \ completed (in %) instead of the title column?

var title = $(e).parent().siblings(”th”).text();

38 $(e).parent().next().html(”"+title+”");

for example:

var title = $(e).parent().siblings(”th”).text();

38 $(e).parent().next().html(”"+completed+”");

Regards,
Mauri

Hello, thanks for the wonderful and helpful article! I have implemented this with relavtive ease (me being new to this concept and all)

I have one request if you dont mind, I would like to know if there would be a way to have a Major task being broken down into subtasks in the gantt view? as in a tree structure? hence each subtask would have its own start/due date/user etc.

this way one big task can be followed up by splitting it between different time frames and users.

Thanks in advance. The JQuery method is the best i have come across so far.
Regards

Was it determined if (and how) to freeze the title row so when you scroll through the items the dates don’t disappear? I’m a bit overwhelmed, I’ve tried to read everything…sorry if I missed the answer.

How come this doesn’t display the title after the bar with the newer library (1.4.2)? Also, I can’t seem to figure out how to show different data in that location. I would like to show a person’s from one of my custom added columns, and I get nothing when I try to replace the title with the name of a different column.

Very new to JQuery, and my only Java Script experience is cutting stuff that works elswhere and pasting it into my html…I know I am HACK and a NEWB!

Dear Paul Grenier,

Where should I use your source code? In SharePoint Designer? In VB Studio?

Help,

Thanks!

I have a gantt chart which has 2-3 items in it, but the height of the gantt is fixed and has got lot of free space which is not looking good.

Can we fix the height (I mean reduce the height of the Gantt Chart)?

Thanks

Awesome! Thanks, This works. I have added certain Columns and one of them is the owner of the Task. Is it possible for me to change the text besides the Gantt Bar to reflect the Owners name instead of the project name? Also there is another column called Comments, these are general comments about the task. Is it possible to have a mouse over (hover) function so when the mouse scrolls over the Gantt bar the comment is displayed? Thanks a lot.

Hi — this code is great fun and thanks for writing it up!

I am having the same problem as Tracey and others. The chart stretches out far to the right, as does the project list. How can I fix this?

Thanks again!

hi there,

Have used this code, has made our gantt chart much more useable, thankyou!!!

Just the same issue now with the chart stretching out far to the right, did anyone come up with a solution to fit on screen and introduce a bottom scroll bar on the gantt part of the display?

Thanks!!

Any idea how to apply filters to the Gantt modified view? It seems to display all the items from the original list and disregard any applied filters..
