UI Configurations

Crystal Gantt Pro now provides these configuration options to help build the Gantt UI that works for you:

Program Specific Configuration

Custom Gantt Columns

When defining a Program you are provided with an option to select the Columns that you want to show in the Gantt’s Table. You can select any available columns and also customize it’s order.

Leaving this blank would show these default columns for that Program: Key, Issue Type, Summary, Start Date, End Date, Time Tracking Progress, Resource, ProgressPercentage.

Global-Reusable Configuration

Gantt Data Settings

While setting up a Program, you are presented an option to select one of existing Gantt Data Settings or create a new one.

When creating a new one, you will notice that this allows you to customize to which Jira fields, the Gantt fields should be bound to.

To clear the selected settings from dropdown, you can use this clear button.

Gantt UI Settings

Similar to above, you can choose an existing Gantt UI Setting or create a new one.

And while creating a new one you will notice that you can customize several behaviors of the Gantt.

To clear the selected settings from dropdown, you can use this clear button.

You, can also sort the Gantt Data and UI settings using the arrow icon near each column as below.

Note: When adding a new item, the sorting will get removed.

Work Time Schedule Settings

This lets you select a “working time schedule”. While determining the duration of a task, the selected schedule will be used.

The supported Built-in Schedules are as follows.

  1. Option_8by5 - "Monday to Friday, 8AM to 4PM" schedule. This is the default schedule used in our Gantt.

  2. Option_24by5 - "Monday to Friday, 24 hours a day" schedule.

  3. Full Time defines a continuous "24 X 7" schedule.

Note: Ability to define a custom schedule will be available soon.
