In my application (that references Gantt Chart controls from Gantt Chart Light Library) I have defined a CustomGanttChartItem object type inheriting from GanttChartItem adding custom properties to be displayed in the grid and/or referenced in custom task templates. However, I loading and saving Project XML files doesn't support loading and saving the custom item type and …
To export data to Microsoft® Project® XML format from Gantt Chart Library or Project Management Library for WPF, you simply need to call the GetProjectXml method of GanttChartTaskListView or ScheduleChartResourceListView components.

By design, the GanttChartView component for Windows® Forms includes inherent limitations: Printing will always print the data grid and Gantt Chart on separate pages; Exporting images is difficult as it would require simmulating printing; Printing or exporting images without specific grid columns is difficult to implement. To handle these operations with more ease, we have prepared a free Extras as…
Gantt Chart Light Library includes only a WPF based sample application showing the way we can data bind the GanttChartDataGrid control to a database (Tasks table and its Predecessors relation). How can we data bind the control to a database from Silverlight™? Silverlight™ is a client side technology within a client-server architecture system, that also requires a Web serve…
We handle CollectionChanged and/or PropertyChanged events of items to save changes made by the end user to the underlying data using controls within Gantt Chart Light Library. However, we have found that these events occur several times, and therefore they are not appropriate for saving changes back to a server or database from inside the handler methods.…
While the WPF demo application allows the end user to export images from Gantt Chart Light Library components and save them as images files on their computer, in the Silverlight™ demo (i.e. Get Started sample) application we have only shown how you can export images from Gantt Chart Light Library components and present them within external Image elements. However, you can also save the image data …
