How to view a particulat baseline plan ?

[ks2008]

I have couple of baseline created in my project plan.
Now I would like to view only a particular baseline plan in GANTTCHART,
but no other plan.
How do I do that ?
Thanks
KS

If you right mouse click on the Gantt Chart, see the "bar styles..."
menu. With this you can do a lot of customisation, including showing
other baseline data. See the "help" button on that screen to get full
information about what you can do.

Better yet create a copy of the Tracking Gantt Chart and call it Tracking
Gantt 1 (View, More Views, select tracking Gantt in list then click Copy
button)
Then use Bar Styles as Rob suggests to format Tracking Gantt 1 to show
Baseline 1. Repeat for other Baselines.

Hi KS

Going ahead with the suggestions of Rob and Rod. Whenever you save a new
baseline, copy the old one as Baseline1 or further through Tools > Tracking >
Set baseline > Set interim plan so that the latest is always 'Baseline'. Then
if you want to view the latest baseline you won't have to customise the bar
area through 'Bar Styles' to view the latest baseline data.

I hope it helps.

One more suggestion. Go to View > More Views > Multiple Baselines Gantt >
Apply, this will show, I think, up to four baselines,
then from Bar Styles you may Cut whatever irrelevant Baselines, remember that
when you cut a baseline you, also, cut its associated Baseline Summary bar.

But then how do you create a new baseline, and make it the default for everything. SPI, as well as the Tracking Gantt Chart and Gantt Chart also uses baseline and not baselineX
