HOW TO DRAW GANTT CHARTS (cont'd)

Linking Task Bars to Show Relationships
To show the relationship between two task bars, you can connect them with a link line.

To connect two shapes with a line, click on the Connect Shapes button in the SmartPanel. Now your cursor looks like a pencil.

Touch the pencil to the edge of one bar and click down with the mouse.

Drag the pencil to the edge of the other bar, and release it when the cursor turns into an Anchor Symbol.

You can change the type of line you use using the drop-down menu Line Shape in the SmartPanel.

You can modify the style and color of your link line using the same Line command in the Shape Style group that you used to modify your task bars.
