Modify Time Period Settings for a Gantt Chart

You can change the Gantt chart timescale to zoom in and out of the timeline. For example, if you are viewing the monthly timeline, to zoom in to see daily timeline information, select the Days timescale value from the Calendar drop-down at the top of the Gantt chart.

Follow these steps:

1. From a page that contains the Gantt chart, open the Options menu and click Gantt.

   The time period settings page appears.

2. Modify the following fields:

   Start Date

   Indicates the start date for the column spread.

   Time Scale

   Specifies the time period by which data displays (days, weeks, and so on).

   Number of Time Periods

   Defines the number of time periods that display.

   Time Period Offset

   Defines how to shift the beginning of the Gantt bar relative to the start date. Enter a positive or negative number of time periods into the field.

3. Save the changes and close.
