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.

How do you show 3 baselines on one bar?

Hi

My manager has asked me to show 3 baselines on one bar. Shown me the output

 

One bar for one activity, with 3 colours per baseline overlapping to show delay - rather than the usual stack arrangment

Thank you In poorly explaining it. I know I need to filter the bars....so you can only see the delay

then put them all on the same row number. this is not the correct way to do it but its your call i am just telling you how to do what you want.

Cheers. Oh. The picture isn't there... I do want them overlapped I want one bar that goes up to a point with the baseline date, then goes further with the update and to the end with the last update (poorly explained I know)

1st maintain and assign 3 baselines 

then in the gantt area right click bars and select the primary baseline, the seconday basline and the tertiary basline  

make sure that each of these has their own row number (listed under Pattern) or they may be on top of one another.
