Advanced Java Gantt Chart Control Features

See five hidden, but powerful features for your scheduling application

Optimizes Display of Overlapping Nodes

Overlapping activities are usually highlighted by a red underscore in one row. But how do you know how much the activities overlap each other? Optimize the view by arranging the overlapping activities one below the other. The row width will be adjusted automatically.

Layers and Nodes: Different Time Frames

An activity can comprise of several data records such as the set date pair "earliest start" and "latest finish" in project plans. Each pair of dates is represented by a layer and the whole activity by a node – recognizable by freely selectable attributes such as a light background for the activity. If dates are modified, you can either modify a layer (extend. shorten, move, delete) or the complete node (depending on your new planning requirements).

Phantoms Display – but Don't Define

Make use of the VARCHART JGantt phantom if you want to check the effects of your modifications first. When moving a phantom, the effect on the other data will be shown immediately, but not yet committed. Only when you release the phantom will the modification be carried out.

Symbols - Also Used in the Table

The completion of activities can be indicated by a modifiication of the layer color - or by symbols in the table. A completed task coud be highlighted by a green hook, a delayed task by a red exclamation mark and a task in process by a blue dot. Of course you can choose symbols you like – traffic lights, smilies etc. Please note that as soon as the data are modified these tags change automatically according to the predefined conditions.
