About Ordering Task/Milestones With Decorations
1) Editing the z-ordering for specific task/milestone decorations is useful when these decorations are overlaid in the chart by other graphics.
2) Decorations on tasks/milestones are always drawn in the same z-order from back to front.
Standard Ordering of Decorations
3) This fixed ordering from back to front is given below:
- a) Connectors in back (e.g., baseline to task/milestone, endpoints, and deadline connectors to task/milestone)
- b) Task/Milestone
- c) Baseline
- d) Endpoints/Deadline
- e) All text for task/milestone, deadline and endpoints in front.
Editing the Ordering of Task/Milestones with Decorations
4) Editing the z-order for a task/milestone shape with decorations is done on an individual task/milestone basis.
5) That is, you must first select the task/milestone shape with a right-click to access the context menu as shown below:
Ordering Sub-Command
6) The sub-menu for the Order command allows you to select any of the four sub-commands as follows:
- a) Bring to front. This option puts the task/milestone decorations in front of all other shapes in the chart area.
- b) Send to back. This option puts the task/milestone decorations behind all other foreground shapes in the chart area (but not behind background shapes).
- c) Bring forward. Selecting the Bring forward option steps the task/milestone decorations forward by one increment of Z-level. This is not very useful.
- d) Send backward. This option steps the task/milestone decorations backward by one Z-level. This also is not very useful.
6) The action of the Order command applies to the task/milestone itself and all decorations associated with it including Task Links.
Example
1) Suppose we have a chart with Percent Complete decorations shown on some task/milestone shapes as shown below:
