Activity Information Dialog Box

Use the Activity Information dialog box to display a wide range of information for a single activity. The dialog box includes two tabs:

  • Schedule tab: Provides an overview of schedule information about the activity including general, float, and date information.
  • Cost tab: Provides budget and cost information about the activity.

You can display this dialog box in any barchart, network, or spreadsheet view. It is also resizable and you can resize it by dragging any corner or side of the dialog box.

The Activity Information dialog box is modeless. This means that you can leave this dialog box open when performing other operations. This allows you, for example, to open the Activity Information dialog box from a network view and then view the information for specific activities by clicking them in the view without having to close and re-open the dialog box each time.

The dialog box has the following buttons that apply to both tabs:

  • Close: Closes the dialog box, saving any changes.
  • Help: Provides access to the online Help topic for the displayed tab.

A set of navigation controls allows you to select another activity.
