(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.

Doesn't work.

Shows necking for days off, but doesn't show necking for gaps in time between activities that it is summarizing.  For instance, if one activity ends on day 10 and the second begins on day 15 the WBS Summary for those two activities won't show a neck for days 11-14.

Does anyone know how to make Primavera do that?

Thanks.

Kinnar,
P6 don’t support necking on summary band. The work around is to create a WBS Summary Task and apply the necking then filter only WBS Summary Task as sample below:

Hi Rodel,
Thanks very much for reply.
It can show neck in the bar when its not collapsed.
I wanted to show it on the bar even when it collased.
Like, 1 WBS have 4 actvities. When you collapsed it, shows 4 diffrent bars in a same line. I want to show neck on those collapsed bars.
Thanks.
Kind Regards,
Kinnar
