How do I...
... specify the information to which the annotation field refers?
- Specify whether the field refers to information in the current project or in a baseline in the Data field.
- Select the Use current chart check box if you want the field to refer to an object in the current chart, or clear the check box and select a different chart if you want it to refer to information elsewhere.
- Select the bar, task, allocation and completed section (where applicable) to which you want the field to refer.
