structure add-on and Gantt chart

Question

In structure add-on and in the Gantt chart section, I want to be able to manually add more story points because the task are longer, but this change will not be made in the same proportion in the rest of the Gantt chart? For example, if we have a FS task, the dependent task will not move forward.

Thanks Stephen,

First, I can not understand this part"1. In the Gantt chart settings, in the Scheduling tab, option 'Use custom estimate' should be selected and the Story Points field defined as Estimate attribute."

Second, I want to change whole Gantt chart by lots of assignees, Not just for specific assignee.

Hello @poupak nami

If you want a dependent task to be rescheduled because the estimate of the earlier task was increased, you need to ensure the following:

1. In the Gantt chart settings, in the Scheduling tab, option 'Use custom estimate' should be selected and the Story Points field defined as Estimate attribute.
2. The 'treat parent issues as groups' option at the bottom of the same screen should be disabled. Otherwise, the earlier task will be treated as a group an in this case, its individual data (including its work estimate) is being ignored.

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance with this or if you have other questions about Structure, please reach out to us directly at our support portal.
