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

var view = project.Views.ToList()[2] as TaskUsageView;

view.TopTimescaleTier.Unit = TimescaleUnit.None;

view.MiddleTimescaleTier.Unit = TimescaleUnit.Weeks;
view.MiddleTimescaleTier.Label = DateLabel.WeekDddMDd;
view.MiddleTimescaleTier.Count = 1;

view.BottomTimescaleTier.Unit = TimescaleUnit.Days;
view.BottomTimescaleTier.Label = DateLabel.DayMmDd;
view.BottomTimescaleTier.Count = 1;

// Define the SaveOptions and specify that TaskUsageView timescale settings should be used.

options.Timescale = Timescale.ThirdsOfMonths;

outputProject = "TaskUsageView_result_thirdsOfMonths_out.pdf";
project.Save(OutDir + outputProject, options);

// Set the Timescale settings to Months
