Prevent Task Title Being Cropped

[Chris]

When viewing a plan in Month view the task titles are cropped within the taskbar by default. What are my options please to overcome this?

Can I specify the title to be displayed to the right of each taskbar? Can I set the title to not be cropped and overflow to the right of the taskbar? Do I have to create a custom template to change anything from the default behaviour?

Many thanks.

Hi Chris,

The task title can be made visible even if the title exceeds the task bar's width, by setting visible overflow. Try the following CSS rule:

.k-task, .k-task-template {
  overflow: visible;
}

That's brilliant to know. I will try it out and let you know how I get along. Thank you.

That worked a treat, thank you very much. There are occasions now where the Task Name overlaps the dependency lines making the Task Name difficult to read. Can the dependency line colour be set in CSS please?

Hi Chris,

Yes, here's a CSS rule that sets the color of the dependency lines:

.k-gantt-line {
  background-color: lightblue;
}
