​
Global-Only Work Items Properties

These properties can only be set globally and are not configurable per widget instance:
NameTypeDefaultDescription
nextedy.gantt.workitems.default.forward_dependencyBooleanfalseReverses the dependency link direction. Set to true if you link tasks from B to A instead of the default A to B (where A depends on B).

Configuration Example

To enable auto-scheduling and critical path visualization globally:
  1. Navigate to Administration > Configuration Properties.
  2. Add the following properties: 
    nextedy.gantt.default.auto_scheduling=true
nextedy.gantt.default.critical_path=true
  3. Save the configuration.
All new Gantt widgets added to pages will have auto-scheduling and critical path enabled by default. Existing widgets retain their saved parameter values.
