Hi,
Not been able to find an answer to this on the forum, so here goes.
I have a detail schedule that is using groups to set up a Level 0 schedule. There are 7 phases, with each phase containing tasks for four elements (Design, Approvals, Construction, Handover/Acceptance) of the project.
Although I have mamaged to get the content right, I need to format each of these elements so that they are shown in different colours. Each elementsis defined by a Flag field, and the usual way is to format the bars so that (for example), Flag 10 bar style is coloured blue, Flag 11 bar style is coloured green etc.
However, as the bars are of the "Grouped By" type, it is not letting me change the format so all bars are the same colour.
Could anyone offer a solution or workround to this problem?
Many thanks.
Thanks Tom - will give this a try.
Hi Tony,
Group by summaries (both table rows and bars) are odd birds. You can make multiple bar styles for them, but the style filters seem to ignore rolled-up custom flag fields while correctly showing Project's built-in criteria.
The only workaround that I could suggest is to play around with roll-up bars. For example, make a new bar style named "Rollup1" and set the show-for filter to "Rolled Up,Flag1" etc. Their appearance is not conventional, but you may find them useful.
Good luck, tom
