Calendar - Select one of the required calendars in the drop-down menu list. Predefined calendars are '5-days per week' or 'Nonstop working'.
To open the Calendar dialog and set a user-defined calendar sequence, click the icon 'Show calendar ...'.

Allow overlapping Activities - Check this box if a project requires overlapping Activities.
Hide project line - If your Gantt chart contains Activities from many subprojects, a summary Activity will be shown for each subproject. Check this box to hide the summary Activity rows for ungrouped subprojects. Once summary rows (and therefore Activity subproject data) are hidden, you can still make subproject names visible by adding a subproject ID column to the chart. Although subproject data may be hidden, chart sorting is still done within each subproject.
Color background of summary structure - Select Horizontal to shade summary Activity rows to make the Activity hierarchy in the chart easier to understand. Then choose a scheme in the Color code in the list (see below).
Color code - Select a color scheme to specify how to shade each level in the tree. Click Add to create a new color code or Edit to modify an existing one.
Color also bar area - If you opted to horizontally shade the background of the summary structure (see above), check this box to also shade the rest of the row.
