Angular Gantt - dependencies

Configures dependencies.

Type:

Object

Default Value: null

View Demo

Dependencies specify the relationships between tasks. The following image illustrates how the Gantt displays dependencies in the chart:

DevExtreme Gantt Chart - Dependencies

The Gantt widget supports the following dependency types:

  • Finish to Start (FS) - The predecessor task's endpoint specifies the successor task's start point.

  • Start to Start (SS) - The predecessor task's start point specifies the successor task's start point.

  • Finish to Finish (FF) - The predecessor task's end point specifies the successor task's end point.

  • Start to Finish (SF) - The predecessor task's start point specifies the successor task's end point.

Use the dataSource option to bind the widget to a data source, which contains information about dependency types. If the field names in your data source differ from the 'id', 'type', 'predecessorId' and 'successorId' default names, use the keyExpr, typeExpr options to map data fields.
