Views in iTaskX
Views display, in a particular format, a subset of the information that you enter in iTaskX. That subset for information is stored in an iTaskX project and is displayed in any view that calls for it. For example, the task name you enter in the table portion of the „Gantt Chart” view also is available in the „Task Sheet” view. iTaskX offers three group of views: task views, resource views and assignment views.
Gantt Chart
View tasks and associated information in a sheet and see tasks and durations over time in a bar graph on a timescale. Use the „Gantt Chart” view to enter and schedule a list of tasks.
Tracking Gantt (iTaskX Pro)
View tasks and task information in a sheet, and a chart showing a baseline and scheduled Gantt bars for each task. Use the „Tracking Gantt” view to compare the baseline schedule with the actual schedule.
Network Diagram (iTaskX Pro)
Enter, edit, and review all tasks and task dependencies. Use the Network Diagram view to create and fine-tune your schedule in a flowchart format.
Task Board (iTaskX Pro)
Manage agile projects using simple, visual task boards that support Kanban, or custom workflows.
Task Sheet
Enter, edit, and review task information in a spreadsheet format.
Resource Sheet
Enter, edit, and review resource information in a spreadsheet format.
Note
It's also possible to add resources with it's basic information in the „Resources” inspector.
Task Usage (iTaskX Pro)
Review, enter, and edit assignments by task. In the sheet portion of the Task Usage view, each task is listed with the assigned resources indented beneath it. In the timesheet portion of the view, information such as work or costs for the task and the assignment is listed according to the timescale; for example, by day or by week.
Resource Usage (iTaskX Pro)
Review, enter, and edit assignments by resource. In the sheet portion of the Resource Usage view, each resource is listed with all associated task assignments indented beneath it. In the timesheet portion of the view, information such as work or costs for the resource and the assignment is listed according to the timescale; for example, by week or month.
To change views in iTaskX use the „View” toolbar icon or use the navigation area.
Note
For most of the iTaskX Pro views an „Graph” area is also available. In the „Graph" area you can set up „Summary” graphs (Work and Cost values) and „Resource” graphs.
To open the „Graph” area in iTaskX Pro use the button
in the footer of the window.
Hint
If you often customize a view, for example, by adding columns, it’s recommended to create a custom view or table for this information because too many columns in one view creates an information overload. It quickly becomes difficult to navigate, print, and manage the project.
For a new custom view, click on the „+” button in the navigation area. To show or hide the navigation area, use this toolbar icon
.
