The Gantt Chart

Basic Choices

• Orientation: Choose job oriented or machine oriented display. In a job oriented gantt chart (each job in one seperate row), also release times and due dates are displayed.
• Special Emphasis: Beside the appearance "Normal" (fixed assignment of up to 23 well distinguished colors) you can choose "Critical Path" (operations on a critical path are red, all others gray) or you can choose some colors for special jobs.
  Critical pathes are only recognized for a C_max objective criterion.
