SimpleSaveOptions.TasksFilter

SimpleSaveOptions.TasksFilter property

Gets or sets the condition which is used to filter tasks rendered on Gantt, Task Sheet and Task Usage charts.

public ICondition<Task> TasksFilter { get; set; }

Remarks

If value is not specified the default filter is used which removes non-visible tasks – i.e. descendant tasks of collapsed tasks.

public void WorkWithTasksFilter()

    var project = new Project(DataDir + "CreateProject2.mpp");

    var options = new PdfSaveOptions
    {
        PresentationFormat = PresentationFormat.GanttChart,
        PageSize = PageSize.A3,
        StartDate = new DateTime(2010, 7, 1),
        EndDate = new DateTime(2010, 9, 1),

        // set a task filter to skip task 'Task5' and 'Task3'
        TasksFilter = new CustomTasksFilter()
    };

    // lets check the save format
    Console.WriteLine("The save format: " + options.SaveFormat);

    // ...

    project.Save(OutDir + "WorkWithTasksFilter_out.png", options);
