Key

Hi,

Please could you explain how I change/amend the 'key' at the bottom of a printed Gantt Chart i.e. the area that sits to the right of the project title when working with the default settings that shows what the 'task', 'milestone', 'External Task' etc. appears like on the chart.

Your help is much appreciated

Richard

RE: Key

Hi Richard,

Thank you for your question.

Do you mean how do you change what is shown on the legend in Print Preview?

If so, navigate to the Format menu and then Bar Styles. If you want to add a particular bar to the Legend or key, then add an asterisk before the name of the bar.

To achieve this select the bar name from the list and click into the entry bar before the first letter of the name. Then use Shift and 8 to add the asterisk.

If you would like a bar removed from the legend/key then Format Styles, select the bar name and remove the asterisk using the entry bar.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

MS Project tip:

Inserting Task Durations Quickly

When entering durations for your tasks simply use the single letters - m for min, h for hr, d for day, w for week, but mon for month. If default is set for days, you need only type the number, for example 3 for 3days, or 0.5 for half a day.
