Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

double click the yellow timescale at the top of the screen. In the dialog, you will see a slide bar labelled "Density". Silding that to the right will increase you bar lengths.

For printing, however, you need to play around with the settings in print preview. In there you can set the date range that will be displayed and this will be scaled to fit the page size you have selected. It’s quite powerful but takes some time to learn the ins and outs. Play around with it and you’ll be a pro in no time!

Hi shahzad,

Have you tried increasing the time scale

go to format>timescale
there you can set the density for the duration by moving the slider to the right.
The bars automatically look longer

voila
