Height Gant Chart Task bar
Hi,
Is there a way to change the default height of the task bar used in a Gantt chart? I can change the height of the 'row' with the task name, start and stop date etc. but the corresponding bar in the timeline does not change height. I'm using Visio Professional 2003 SP2. Thanks, |

Click on the page background so no shape is selected and menu Shape - Custom Properties and change the Normal Task Bar Height to suit. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.

Height Gant Chart Task bar
Hi Paul, thx for the quick reply.
I get a "No custom properties exist" pop-up. If I try to "create custom properties" I do (logically?) not see the 'Normal Task Bar Height'. Any suggestions?

You are doing this on a diagram with a Gantt chart? -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.

Height Gant Chart Task bar
Hi Paul, actually I added the Gantt chart in an existing Timeline sheet.
You're question triggered me to create a new file (Gantt chart metric) and there I do find the Normal Task Bar Height property. So I copy/pasted the chart I made in this new sheet and everything works fine. No idea why it doesn't work in the other file, but I can continue anyway.

The problem is that a Gantt chart shape isn't really allowed on a timeline chart page. Creating a Gantt chart diagram adds certain custom properties to the page, just adding a Gantt chart fram to a page doesn't seem to add these properties. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.
