# Bar Border Color

The xViz Gantt Chart allows you to configure the Border Colors of the Timeline Bars. We can change the color of the borders of both the parent and child bars as needed.

The configurable options are:

* Parent Border Color - Apply color to the border of the Parent bar.
* Child Border Color - Apply color to the border of the Child bar.

If the “Hide Border” toggle is turned on, this hides the border color of the Parent and the Child bar.
