General Gantt Control Features

The Gantt Control implements the following features:

• Different types of task objects such as regular tasks, milestones and groups
• Unlimited time bar
• Fully-customizable appearance (custom color schemes and owner-draw elements)
• Task connectors
• Build-in resource grid
• Working/non-working intervals
• Task completeness
• Zoom In / Zoom Out
• Collapsible task groups (projects)
• Generic Data Storage interface
• MFC Document/View integration: CBCGPGanttView class is provided out of the box
• Persistent state
• Drag and Drop and item resizing support

The Gannt Chart control automatically adjusts the horizontal scroll range in order to display any part of the time bar.

Sample code:

// This code demonstrates how to setup the initial Gantt Data quickly

class CGanttView : public CBCGPGanttView
{
// Operations
public:
	void CreateDemo (BOOL bRedraw = TRUE);
....
};

void CGanttView::CreateDemo (BOOL bRedraw /*= TRUE*/)
{
    CBCGPGanttControl& control = GetControl ();
    CBCGPGanttChart* pChart = GetChart ();

    COleDateTime t = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime ();
    t.SetDate (t.GetYear (), t.GetMonth (), t.GetDay ()); // reset time

    for (int i = 0; i < 7; ++i)
    {
        CBCGPGanttItem* pItem = new CBCGPGanttItem;

        pItem->SetInterval (t, t + COleDateTimeSpan(3, 0, 0, 0));
        pItem->SetProgress (0.005f + 0.19f * i);

        pChart->AddItem (pItem);

        t += COleDateTimeSpan(1, 0, 0, 0);
    }
}
