Critical path analysis

How do you show the critical path on the Gantt chart

RE: Critical path analysis

Hi Martin

The fastest way to view your critical path is to swtich to the Tracking Gantt view which still shows your Gantt chart but changes the bars of your critical tasks to red.

Alternatively click on the Gantt chart wizard icon (the magic wand at the end of the formatting toolbar) and choose the Critical Path option. This will reformat your regular Gantt chart to show critical task bars in red.

Hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew


 

MS Project tip:

Formatting Bar Text

To display notes or resource initials on the Gantt chart bars, choose Format, Bar Styles and the Text tab. Select the position you want to show the text i.e. Top or Inside etc, then choose the field name you are looking for from the drop down arrow. Type the first letter of the name to get quickly to the top of the letter range. Click OK.
