Manual dependencies - Profitbase/PowerBI-visuals-Gantt GitHub Wiki

Instead of setting up dependencies in your dataset, you can define task connections interactively directly on the Gantt chart using the built-in Task Information workspace.


How to Add Dependencies Manually

Step 1: Open the Task Information menu

Double-click any taskbar directly on the timeline to open the interactive Task Information popup menu.
