Turn off the red triangles (collapse/expand indicators)

Question:     

I would like to turn off the red triangles which appear in my first column to the left of the schedule area.  How can I do this?

 

Answer:

Just un-check the Collapse/Expand Indicators option on the View tab.

 

Change the color, size, shape of the collapse/expand indicators

  1. Go to Tools | Program Options | General.  
  2. Change the color next to Roll-up triangle color
  3. Pick a shape and optionally, pick a size.

 

Available shapes:

Down Triangles

Down/Right Triangles

shows a filled downward pointing triangle to indicate the task is rolled up.  Shows a filled right pointing triangle to indicate the task is not rolled up.

Plus/Minus

shows a filled plus symbol to indicate the task is rolled up.  Shows a filled minus to indicate the task is not rolled up.
