Yes. See Menu: Format/Timescale, Tab: Non-working time.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Hi KMD,

The answer to your question taken as such is No.
But there is a nice workaround.
Leave the weekends as non working time
Make weekends working time for all resources.
Work will then be scheduled during weekends (at least for tasks having at
least one resource assigned to) but Sat-Sun will still be grey in the Gantt
Chart.

I think that's the opposite of KMD's request. Sat/Sun *are* working time
(albeit non-standard working time).

I was unable to make Sat/Sun working days *and* give them a greyscale.

Yes. See Menu: Format/Timescale, Tab: Non-working time.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Hello everybody,

It's easy to meet the KMD's request by using a 2nd calendar :
- Standard calendar : I guess that it has been customized with Saturdays
and Sundays as non working time. That's the Project's calendar that you can
check in : Project / Project Information / Calendar..
- On the timescale, you can display another calendar which could be a copy
of the Standard one *before* the changes. Format / Timescale... /
Non-Working time / Calendar : 2nd calendar
