Can you colour in tasks in the gantt chart?

Hi, Does anyone know how to colour in each task? for instance i am creating a project programme in Gantt and would like to have a breakdown coloured in blue and then the next task to be coloured in Red and following on in Grey - (like you would in MS project)

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Welcome to the Community @Alex Watts 👋

Tasks on Gantt Chart are color-coded based on their statuses. For example, if you have a custom workflow where you set different colors for different statuses, those colors will be shown for tasks on the Gantt Chart. Please let me know if you have any further questions, I'll be happy to help 🙂

Would want the color in the tasks section side as well. How is that done?

Hi @Isaac Mantey, welcome to the Community! Thank you for your comment. You can see the color assigned to your tasks in the "Status" column:

If you don't see this column, you can choose to display it by clicking on the gear icon on the right-top of the table, and selecting it:

I hope this information helps! Please, let us know if there's anything else we can help you with 🙂

Is there a way to coulour code tasks as a group ? ie. 3 related tasks are green, another independent 3 are purple
Can be the font, or a separate box for example

Hi Sylvain Brechet 👋

It’s possible to color code tasks through custom workflows and statuses. You can create specific statuses with different colors, which will be reflected in the Gantt Chart and other views. For example, you can create a custom status named "Group A" with a green color and another named "Group B" with a purple color. Assign these statuses to the tasks you want to group by color, I’m attaching screenshots below for your reference 👇

I hope this helps with your use case! Do let me know if you have any other questions 🙂
