You just make the gantt chart more confusing. But what you need is _the_ critical path, just like every other tool does it, and if only to make your superior happy. I currently cannot use taskjuggler "officially" because not being able to output a PERT diagram or displaying the critical path means I cannot provide enough data to help people understand the "logic" of a project. There is a PERT chart generator in the Contrib directory. It generates PERT charts from XML (version 1) files. Quote: > So what I need is: find the path from the first task to the last task in a project that is formed by explicit or implicit dependencies. Implicit dependency means that a task depends on a preceding task by availability of resources, not by "depends" or "precedes". So what should I do if there are several first and last tasks? How should the path(es) be visualized in the reports?
