Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

In P3, filter out those activities which will be in chainage diagram by code.

In autocad, prepare a macro including: -
- link to P3 selected activities and look for activity type, duration and dates.
- prepare the axis of the diagram, ie time scale and chainage scale
- shape of each object determine by activity type
- size of the polygon depends by dates and duration
- for color, may by some activity code
