Rolled up tasks in Groups

[Johan]

Hello,

I created a program but I have a problem with the creation of one view. I
created a view where I see in the summery task all my different task on one
line. This you can due to the Roll up function and playing with barstyles.
But the next view gives me a problem! First I have to group and now I need to
see on the summery line all grouped task on one line. But here I see the Roll
up function do not work and I don't find something in the barstyles.

Can you help me?

Best regards,

Johan

Johan,
That's because the "summary" lines you see when grouping is applied are
not task objects. In other words they are a customized view format
created solely for display purposes when grouping.

There is no way to get around it. You could use filtering and sorting in
lieu of grouping but you still won't have a summary line that displays
the combined Gantt of the tasks you want.
