React Gantt Chart cell editing

Edit task values with cell editing

Cell editing updates individual column values directly within the tree grid. This helps teams make targeted task changes without editing the entire record. Use it when schedule updates require modifications to one value at a time.

React Gantt Chart dialog editing

Dialog editing workflows

Dialog editing groups related task information into dedicated editing sections. This helps teams manage task details, dependencies, resources, and other project data from a centralized editing experience. Use it when schedule updates involve multiple task properties.

React Gantt Chart taskbar editing

Adjust schedules with taskbar editing

Taskbar editing updates task dates, duration, and progress directly on the timeline. This helps teams adjust schedules while seeing task relationships and timeline impact in context. Use it when project plans require visual schedule adjustments.

React Gantt Chart context menu

The context menu provides common editing actions near the selected task or row. This helps teams perform task-specific updates without navigating away from the current schedule view. Use it when quick access to task actions is important.

React Gantt Chart row drag and drop reordering

Reorder tasks with row drag and drop

Drag and drop rows to reorder tasks or move them beneath another parent. This helps teams reorganize task hierarchies directly within the schedule. Use it when project structure changes require updates to task order or parent-child relationships.

React Gantt Chart undo and redo

Restore changes with undo and redo

Undo and redo restore or reapply recent schedule changes. This helps teams manage planning updates and recover from unintended edits without rebuilding task data. Use them when schedule revisions require correction or validation.

Frequently Asked Questions

✅ Can dependencies be drawn between taskbars in React Gantt Chart?

Yes. Drag a connector from one taskbar to another to create a dependency directly on the timeline and review the resulting schedule relationship.

✅ Can editing be enabled or disabled dynamically in the React Gantt Chart?

Yes. The React Gantt Chart allows editing features to be turned on or off at runtime based on the current application state. This helps teams control when project schedules can be updated and when they should remain read-only.

✅ Can rows be reordered by dragging in React Gantt Chart?

Yes. Row drag and drop reorders sibling tasks and moves tasks beneath a different parent without manually changing hierarchy fields.

✅ How do undo and redo in React Gantt Chart help during editing?

Undo and redo reverse or reapply recent schedule changes. They support reviewing alternatives and correcting unintended edits during planning.

✅ Can I edit multiple task properties in a single dialog?

The React Gantt Chart provides a built-in edit dialog that lets users update task details, dependencies, resources, and other related information from a centralized interface. This simplifies project updates by keeping all key task settings in one place.

✅ Can the toolbar and context menu be customized in React Gantt Chart?

Yes. Both surfaces can combine built-in actions with custom commands, and the two can be coordinated so the same operation is available in the toolbar, the context menu, or both. This helps keep the editing flow consistent across the chart and grid.
