Bar Fill Color

The xViz Gantt Chart allows you to change the color of the Parent bar or the Child bar or both using the diverse options from “Color By.”

The options are:

  1. All:

When we select the option “All,” we can set the color for all Parent bars and all Child bars. These are the available options:

  • Parent Fill Color

  • Parent Track Color

  • Child Fill Color

  • Child Track Color

  1. Parent:

We can set the bar colours by Parent grouping.

The Field options are:

  • Parent Fill color

  • Parent Track color

Choose one field parameter at a time to set the colors for each of the parameters.
