Delete tasks on Gantt

Question

Would be nice to have the possibility to mark some tasks as "deleted" instead of normally completed to distinguish tasks that may possibly have been discarded, postponed or whatever.

Answer 1

Good idea!

Whith last beta http://beta.plantuml.net/plantuml.jar you can have

@startgantt
Project starts the 5th of november 2018
saturday are closed
sunday are closed
[Prototype design] lasts 3 weeks
then [Prototype completed]  lasts 5 days
then [Test prototype] lasts 5 days
[Prototype completed] is deleted
@endgantt

This is a first draft, so comment are welcome!

Thanks for this! I couldn't find any definition of style for deleted tasks, e.g. I tried this:

<style>
ganttDiagram {
        task {
                deleted {
                    BackGroundColor c0c0c0
                    FontColor 838383
                }
        }
}
</style>

Am I missing something?

Hello S.,

You are right... Currently there are no style for that.

The colors are hardcoded, as mentioned on the current code:

• https://github.com/plantuml/plantuml/blob/e1f938f70cb600e68cf96d18a937701c2f50111a/src/net/sourceforge/plantuml/project/GanttDiagram.java#L818

That is now a wanted feature.

Th.
