Show Weekends in a Gantt Chart

Hello,
I am designing a chart to show the workload for a specific shop for a complete month. I am using the top axis to display the first day to the last day of the month and I must color the weekends within the Gantt Chart so that they stand out from the normal working days.

Any Ideas??

Thanks!!

Hi CCRyder,

Would you like to have the axis labels for weekend in different color, the gantt bars or both?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Narcis,
I have the dates on the Top Axis, the Gantt Bars are showing the work package that has to be performed on a specific day. What I would like to do is highlight the date on the Top Axis and also shade in the Column from the top axis of the chart to the bottom axis for this specific day so that it will be obvious if the work will fall on a Weekend.

Hi CCRyder,

To be able to set a different color for some specific labels you should use custom labels as shown in the All Features\Welcome!\Axes\Labels\Custom labels example at the new features demo.

Regarding the shaded column, I suggest you to use ColorBand tools. You'll find examples at All Features\Welcome!\Tools\Color Band in the features demo as well.

You'll find the demo at TeeChart's program group created by the binary installer.

Have a Happy Easter!!
