Hi to all,

any body knows how to format the color of baseline schedule(target). my program is loaded with baseline so meaning it has two bar for each activity, but i want to change the color of critical activity of baseline from red to any colorwithout affecting the early bar schedule.

thanks

Albert

Anoon, you are right with that. It will function the same.

Albert, I think I don’t know of such way in P3. I hope others do and would tell us.

In order for me to make distinction between the target and the early bar, with both bearing the critical color on them,... I will just reduce the size of the target bar.. say from 5 to 2. This serves me best though...

Best regards,

Gerry

in addition to what Gerry had said, i remember there is an option to "display criticality on - you can choose between your baseline schedule and current schedule".

Hi Albert,

Do not show critical colors on your target bars.

Go to FORMAT, BARS, and on the DEFINE BARS pop-up, hi-light the TARGET BAR. Clear the check mark on the column CRITICAL. This will now show the color you have selected for the target bar.

To modify the color of the target bar, when are still on the DEFINE BARS pop-up, hi-light TARGET BAR and click the MODIFY button. In the MODIFY BAR DEFINITION pop-up, click on the bar color and select the color you like.

Cheers,
Gerry

on my knowledge you can’t change the red color of the Target bars. you can add patterns to them.
