How to show task duration - Please help!
« on: December 30, 2005, 06:59:44 am »
I am working on an activity diagram and would like to show task time and duration on the diagram.   Is there a way to show this in EA that can print on the diagram and in the reports?  

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!   :)

Hi Sarah.  This may not be what you are looking for but... If you display the Project Management window (view menu option and then select Project Management).  Then, click on the Resource Allocation tab of the Project Management Window, then click on the activity shape that you want to show task time and duration for, then right mouse click on the Resource Allocation tab in the Project Management window and choose Add New from the pop-up window, you can allocate a resource, assign duration, start and end dates.  Then, right mouse click on the root activity diagram and choose Documentation from the pop-up and then Rich Text Documentation, if you choose the basic template you will find that the .RTF document created will show the resource assignment including start and end dates.  I am not certain about task time, you may have to play with this a bit to get that to work.

I hope this helps you out!
