Parent with child, want to show full date of the parent

Question

In my Gantt, with the parent, I would like to show the full width of the bar based on startdate and enddate.

That's working well until I add a subtask. Suddenly the parent takes the size of the date of my subtask.

I want the parent to keep the same size as he had before having a subtask.

I tried the manual mode, but now I have two parents in the Gantt, and I do not want that.

How can I achieve that?

thanks

Hi Frédéric,It is the default behaviour, where the start and
end date of the parent task should be adjust based on the start and end date of
the child task. So, we cannot keep the parent task to a fixed start and end
date. We have provided a work around to achieve your requirement using queryTaskbarInfo
event in manual mode to keep
the parent task on same size even after adding the child task. We have
attached sample for your reference, please refer to the below sample and code
snippets for more information.Code snippet:

queryTaskbarInfo: function (args) {
      if (args.data.isManual &&
  args.data.hasChildRecords) {
         
  args.taskbarElement.style.left = args.data.ganttProperties.left + 'px';
         
  args.taskbarElement.querySelector('.e-gantt-parent-taskbar-inner-div').style.width
  = args.data.ganttProperties.width + 'px';
         
  args.taskbarElement.querySelector('.e-manualparent-main-container').style.visibility
  = 'hidden';
      }
    },
