Hi IQ Users,
 
In this release (v0.9.26PreRel53):
  • New: Gantt menu
  • New: Gantt: Added Show critical path and Recalculate critical path commands
  • New: Gantt: Added "Can move a task that has started". If unchecked, a task that has started (i.e. %Complete > 0) can no longer be moved. Users can still manually change the start and end dates.
  • New: Gantt: Added a "Show Today" command. It centers the Gantt chart on today's date
  • New: Gantt: Double-click on the Gantt area where there is no bar moves the chart to the first bar date (or to today if the chart does not yet have a date)
  • New: Gantt: Link properties dialog. Users can now set the link type and task lag
  • New: Gantt: Link bars command button. Select 2 bars and click to define the link between the two. Alternatively, Shift and click on the first bar and drag to the second bar.
  • New: Timeline: Add option to show or not bar captions
  • Fixed: Grid: Sort sub-items was broken
  • Fixed: Grid: Source bar: Sort by any text field did not work unless the field was enclosed with [ ]
  • Fixed: Grid: WYSIWYG Editor Entering an email address generated an incorrect hyperlink
  • Fixed: Gantt: Adding a link from bar1 to bar2 deleted previous links going out of bar1
  • Fixed: Gantt: On high-DPI displays, the bar height was too small
  • Fixed: Gantt: Numerous initial setup issues
  • Fixed: HTML Pane: Multiple HTML pane setup was not always synchronizing panes correctly
  • Change: Gantt: UI improvements
  • Change: Gantt: Zoom-on-the-fly is now triggered when pressing both Shift and Ctrl

The gantt stuff is great. Not sure how the "task lag" works exactly though

 
Note that there are a few things that can completely break IQ's Gantt  fluidity :

1- Some date-times fractions seem to provoke calculations problems (I'll have to checks, but most probably linked to decimals that don't "resolve" properly) and CPU usage increase makes IQ unusable.

2- The critical path recalc should probably warn the user that values will be changed for good... I fell into that trap. 1h putting things back as they were

3- I pressed undo 2 times by mistake after a gantt operation, and the gantt got completely stuck, without any workaround; I finally discovered that it was due to "summary bars" that were trying to recalculate themselves in a loop or something like that. It took me a long while to figure it out and removing all summary bars fixed it. Put them back after reentering TaskActStart/enddates in gantt subitems.

All seem to be fixed or improved. Thanks.
