The RedmineX Gantt chart plugin offers many handy features to help users manage their projects more effectively. Let's find out what the secret & hidden feature of the RedmineX Gantt chart is?
One of the plugin's key features is the ability to create and edit tasks & subtasks, set relations, and assign employees without leaving the Gantt view.
The project-level Gantt chart is a popular tool used to visualize and manage the timeline of a specific project. These charts provide a clear and easy-to-understand overview of the tasks and milestones, as well as their dependencies and durations. This allows project managers to swiftly identify potential issues or delays, and make adjustments as needed. Moreover, the project-level Gantt chart can display the critical path. Isn’t that a buzzword? So what is it? The critical path in project planning is the sequence of tasks that determine the minimum amount of time needed to complete a project. It is the longest path in a project network diagram and identifies the critical tasks that must be completed on time to avoid delaying the overall project completion.
In RedmineX Gantt, you can switch it on and off and it will visually tell you which tasks are critical for the timely completion of the project.
So, is that the secret feature we were advertising?
Not at all. The secret gem has nothing to do with the Gantt chart planning features, yet it is the most important reason to use the Gantt chart, even if you’re not a fan.
Imagine your project gets delayed, and you need to postpone it, and move all tasks into the future. In Redmine, this is a true nightmare as you need to open all tasks one by one and change the start and due dates. Well, not any more.
