Colour

How do you change a number of bars under a heading such as 'Electrical Works' to show different trades that are being used on a construction program?

For example, I would like to show all different aspects of works in different bar colours to make it more presentable.

I know how to change the font colour but not sure how to change the bar colours.

Thanks,

Kieran

RE: Colour

Hi Kieran, thanks for your query. You can change individual bar styles by selecting the task you are interested in or clicking on the bar itself, then selecting Format - Bar. This should allow you to change colour, shading etc.

Hope this helps,

Anthony
