Can't Find 'Color Settings' When Right-Clicking Gantt Task Bar

Best Answer

Hi @Cam G38,
The Color Settings only appear if you right click a task bar for a child row. It won't appear if you right click the task bar for a parent row.
See this thread for more information.
For example, in this screen shot, I right clicked a child row, which is an actual task in my sheet.
But in this screen shot, I right clicked the parent row, which is not an actual task.
I hope this helps!

in the help page it is saying:
Gantt View task bar
- Right-click on a task bar.
- Select Color Settings. A color palette appears.
- Select the color you want for the task bar.
when I click right on my task bar I don't have 'color settings'
where it is supposed to appear?
