Changing the schedule in 'Classic' scheduling mode, via the task gantt view is super easy. 



Click-and-Drag Tasks to Update the Schedule via the 'Classic' Task Gantt View 

We have three click-and-drag options, we can:

  1. Can click-and-drag a single task to move it
  2. We can hold shift+click on one task, then still holding shift, click on another task to create a group of tasks - dragging this group of tasks to move them
  3. We can hold control (ctrl)+click on a number of tasks - dragging this selection of tasks to move them


That is in addition to double-clicking on a task to edit it.





Double-Clicking Tasks to Update the Schedule via the 'Classic' Task Gantt View 


We can also update the schedule by accessing the Task Details pop-up via the gantt view, that's by: 

  1. Double-clicking on the task you want to change

    This will open a Task Details pop-up

  2. Clicking on a task's 'Planned Start Date' field

    This will open a calendar drop-down

  3. Clicking on the date you want to move this task's start date to

  4. Selecting one of three 'Future Task Movement' options:
    • Move Only this Task 
    • Move All Future* Milestone Tasks 
    • Move All Future* Tasks 

      IMPORTANT NOTE: Rave does not consider the time of day when selecting 'All Future Tasks' - this means that ALL other tasks starting on this day (even tasks earlier in the Milestone, or in previous milestones) will also move.

  5. And finally, clicking the 'NEXT' button, and 'SAVE' on the next screen to confirm

    Again, if moving future milestone/scheduled tasks, you'll typically see the first task move, then any subsequent future tasks a few seconds afterward.     

 


NOTE:  Adding tasks and milestones within classic scheduling, can only be done via the schedules Task List view.  If you do need to add milestones and tasks via the Gantt view, we have that functionality in our Advanced and Enterprise scheduling systems. If you really do need this enhance functionality, please contact Rave Build customer support by phone 07 210 2228, or help@ravebuild.co.nz to discuss the advanced and/or enterprise scheduling modules.
