Summary and Driving paths

AaronO

Hi all,

I'm trying to see summary and driving paths in my project as described here but I don't have the options. I have a business plan and can't find any settings that would enable the functionality -seems like it should just be there when I right-click a task but it isn't. Any ideas?

thanks

When you switch over to Gantt view it will be the button to the left of the settings cog in the top right corner.

No, that's to turn on the critical path, which applies to the entire project. "Summary" and "Driving" path are like the critical path but to a specific subtask. The link I posted shows screenshots of these features.

Hi @AaronO

I hope you're well and safe!

Ensure that you've enabled the Dependencies feature in the Project Settings, and then try clicking on a parent row in the Gantt.

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Hi Andrée - yes, dependencies are enabled. The regular "critical path" function works fine.

Strange!

I'd be happy to take a quick look.

Can you maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s)? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

Try right clicking on the actual bar in the Gantt chart.

Paul, that's it! Thanks!
