Viewing Slack on a Gantt chart

Hi, could you please tell me how to view slack on the gantt chart. I thought it was displayed on the tracking gantt but it is not showing. Many thanks, Geoff

RE: Viewing Slack on a Gantt chart

Hi Geoff,

Thank you for your question.

Go to the Format menu and choose Bar Styles. Select Task from the list and go to the Text tab. You can now choose the position for the Slack value to be added. The choices will be Left, Right, Centre, Top or Bottom.

If you click in the left section and click on the arrow at the end of the field, and from the list of fields choose Slack. This should place the slack values to the left of each task Gantt bar.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

MS Project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
