In the scheduling view, you can follow up and reschedule tasks and task content in the calendar using the drag-and-drop method. You can make the following changes:

•Move entire tasks.

•Move task content within tasks.

•Shorten and lengthen task content.

When you change a task or task content, a copy of the task is created in the baseline, a shadow object. It is the shadow object you are moving or changing. The mission's original position, i.e. the position in the baseline, is shown in pink, transparent color, and the tasks content gets diagonal lines. The horizontal bar for projects changes if the total project time changes with the change. Original position of the project is shown in a light gray color.
