Gantt Chart   Message List

Hello,

I'm looking for a Gantt chart tool.  I have read Andrew Trice's article at http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/andrewtrice?entry=gantt_charts_in_flex_datagrids and I will use that if I don't find another solution.

I don't need to draw dependencies.  I'm actually going to use it to build a product roadmap.  When I add series I would like animations to display.

Sorry if this question has been asked a lot.  I've googled it for two days now and haven't found a real solution.  I herd that back in Nov 2004 that someone showed a Gantt chart example "that was completely interactive with drag and drop" capabilities.  http://www.richinternet.de/blog/index.cfm?entry=0539CEAE-91C9-CD8F-0556645BE7952887

After searching through this mailing list it seems that Ely was working on something?  His name came up in about every Gantt chart mail string i read.

Thanks SO much for your help,

Nate

What kind of animations are you trying to display. As long as you don't need to cross into other grid rows, the method I described will work very well. You...

OK, so here's a question for Ely or some chart experts. Let's say you wanted to create an editable chart, like a Gantt chart that let you drag the regions. Is...

Nice Doug. What about dates? In theory how would that part hook up? I would argue that a time line of dates might be the most important part. I like what you...

Hi, You can accomplish the dates on the linear axis by defining what value 0 would be as a date (eg. Today)... then just use a labelFunction on the axis to...
