Hello,

I saw an progress problem when i complete the task, i will provide an short video to see the problem, when i increase the progress to 100% after restart it doesn't getting 100% but 99%.

Video: http://a.pomf.cat/xenxme.mp4

Hi westor

Many thanks for the video, it looks to be related to dependency checking.

Could you also attach a screenshot of the 'Gantt Chart' showing the relationships between these tasks pls?

Thanks, I think I understand what part of the problem is now.

From your Gantt video it doesn't look like you have set up any dependencies between tasks and yet when you changed the % from 99->100 the program prompted you about dependencies.

Some time ago (from memory) there was a bug where all tasks were incorrectly assigned an empty Dependency attribute which might account for this issue. If you make the Dependency column visible (View > Task Attribute Visibility > Dependency) you might see the orange icons like in the following image:


If you do see these icons and you didn't create any dependencies yourself then we must clear this field first:


1. Switch to the 'List View'

2. 'Edit > Select All'

3. Mouse-click in the Dependency edit field

4. 'Edit > Other Task Attributes > Clear Focused Task Attribute'

Let me know how you go...

Yes, it seems that Dependency added when i created an sub-task but how can i disable that Dependency because i don't need it in order to make all of my sub-tasks working when increase at 100% of the progress.

Follow the steps I describe at the bottom of my previous post.
