Is it possible to adjust the width of the Task column? It's cutting off at 13 characters and therefore cutting off a significant amount of identifiable information. When I mouse over the chart all I get is the white, pointing finger icon.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Sean Thanks for your response! With a little more playing around, I was able to find it (of course after I contacted the author). In the Format options under Category labels, changing the width adjusts the width of the Task column.
@Sean the "width" is not available in the formatting menu any longer? Any idea how to avoid the "cutting" of text at the right side of the visual with the current version Gant 2.2.3.?
It doesn't seem like it - however you do get the whole text as a Tooltip if you hover over the Task!

They will respond to you - and may tell you that they'll include the option at a later release or why they'll not!
I've contacted them regarding the Facet Key and they did actually fix the issue I had !
