Assignment Units

[jhughesoneplan]

I am having issues with javascript and long decimals. The issue is that if you do effort driven, and fixed effort. If you have a long task with small effort you have a small decimal like 7.12334% for instance in the units of an assignment. I don't need that accuracy, so is there a way to truncate or set the number of decimals for units?

Hey jhughesoneplan,

You're looking for this https://bryntum.com/products/gantt/docs/api/Gantt/column/EffortColumn#config-decimalPrecision

I am trying to apply to an assignment unit not effort. Does this translate over?

Hey jhughesoneplan,

Sorry, my mistake. If I understood correctly, you're trying to set the assignment unit to not have too many decimals, you can achieve that by using the following snippet (the minimum/maximum values are just for example, you can change as your wish)

features : {
        taskEdit : {
            items : {
                resourcesTab : {
                    items : {
                        grid : {
                            columns : {
                                // Columns are held in a store, thus it uses `data`
                                // instead of `items`
                                data : {
                                    units : {
                                        format : {
                                            minimumFractionDigits : 0,
                                            maximumFractionDigits : 2
                                        }
                                    }
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

If it's not what you're looking for, could you provide more context and maybe some screenshots of where you want to change?

That would be effecting the task edit. I need the setting global. The issue is if you have a long duration task say 113 days and then say set the effort to 1 hour. Your units decimal is 0.11061946902654868. This causes an issue especially since javascript has issues handling large decimals. I want that truncated to 2 decimals in my case.

Hi jhughesoneplan,

Not sure I got the point. If you round value, it won't be equal to 1 hour. If you only want to change it visually, you'll need to set all places in UI where this value appears. What's your plan?
