Outline Properties

Microsoft Project has an outline structure that lets users get a quick overview of a project. Aspose.Tasks for .NET supports this functionality and lets developers control the outline number - where the task appears in a hierarchy - and the outline level - which level of the hierarchy the task is in.

Working with Outline Properties

The Tsk class exposes the OutlineNumber and OutlineLevel properties for managing outlines associated with a class:

  1. OutlineNumber (string).
  2. OutlineLevel (integer).

Outlines in Microsoft Project

In Microsoft Project, outline number and outline level properties can be viewed on the Task Entry form by adding the columns:

  1. On the Insert menu, select columns.
  2. Add the OutlineNumber and OutlineLevel columns.
