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.

I am new of P3e.
I faced the first problem, because I need to format bars (Color) in different ways.

In P3 was easy having two main possibilities:
- select the bars and then apply a format (colors, etc..);
- apply a format to a set of bars in function of an activity code value.

It is possible to do the same in P3e, and how?

Thanks for the help.

L.

It is not as simple as in P3, but you may create a bar with a different colour and then apply a filter to the bar so this type of bar formatting is applied to bars that meet the filter criteria, such as specific Activity Codes.

You will then need one bar for each Activity Code you wish to format.

Next you should move the bar down in the list so the special bar is drawn on top of all other bars.

I have only tried simple examples and I have not used this function on a project.

But even in Format bar I can not like in P3 format with different colors only the selected bars.
Isn’t it?

To format the bars you will need to display the Bars form by selecting View, Bars from the menu or clicking on the Bars icon on the toolbar.
