General Overview

The Gantt Chart facilitates an easy and structured analysis of tasks in the AE system.

The Gantt Chart is a bar diagram that depicts ended, active and future tasks along a timeline. Different colors are used to highlight types, states and task dependencies. Hierarchic relations (parents and child tasks) are also shown.

You can limit the number of tasks that should be displayed by using a filter so that only tasks are displayed that are of interest for the user.
