The task type of multiple tasks can be changed at the same time.
- Select multiple tasks in the Task Grid, then right-click More > Set Task Type, then choose the type of task to change them to (Work, Monitor, Meeting, Summary, Milestone, Major Milestone).
- As always, multiple tasks can be selected using the Ctrl-key (individual tasks), Shift-key (range of tasks), or by selecting a summary task (it and all its subtasks).
- Selected tasks are highlighted in orange in the Task Grid and cyan in the graphics area.
- The default values for Duration, Work Per Day, and Total Work are also updated when changing from one Task Type to another.
- The following table shows the default values for each Task Type, where the asterisk (*) is a function of the resource's availability (hours/day), shown here as 5 hours/day.
