Tips & Tricks for July 2021

(Click the question title for the answer)

No vertical lines in date headings

We have created a new schedule and in the date headings we have displayed the Months, however there are no vertical lines separating the month titles.  I have the vertical lines within the schedule but want the lines in the date headings area too.  I have searched high and low...Can you tell me how to add these?

Numbered date headings

I want numbers instead of letters or month names in the date headings.  This is for a project proposal.  I don't know when the project will start.

Show dates at the bottom of the schedule

Is there a way to show date headings at the bottom of the schedule?

Date heading only shows letter on some pages

My date heading shows some months with the full name and others with an abbreviation.  Is there a way to make it consistent?

Fiscal and calendar quarters

How can I have fiscal quarters and calendar year quarters, as shown above?

Logarithmic time scales

I want to display a heading that displays a sort of logarithmic time scale.  I want to show one year compressed for historical tracking and the current year more spread out.  How can I do that?

Date heading increments don't fit

I have a schedule that is six months long. I added Daily as a date heading type, yet the days appear squashed together. What can I do to make them more presentable?

Date range override for each page

I created a year-long schedule which starts on 10/1/2022 and ends on 9/31/2023, taking up one full page. How can I include another date range in the same schedule, say for the next year beginning 10/1/2022 and ending 9/31/2023?

Date heading divider override

In the Date Heading area: is there a way to make the background color dark and the divider lines lighter?   

Attach a date heading to a task row

I want to add a date heading about half-way through my schedule.  Is this possible now?

20 Day Vertical Gridlines

I am looking at Milestones for a new project. The planning is done using normal calendar dates but the Gantt has to have a vertical line every twenty days so that it can show 20 day periods.
