Hi team,

I can open edit task popup by using code

gantt.editTask(taskRecord)

But in my case, I've custom button "Add new task" and I want trigger action on this button to open new task popup. Do we've similar method same as edit task? I tried to use

gantt.addTask()

but failed.

Thanks.

Could you please share the code of that button? What does it look like? Is it on the tbar?

Hi Tasnim,

Code is empty, I just have new custom button outside chart like below

Hi,

Inside your button click fn use this code

const records = gantt.selectedRecords;
if (records.length > 0) {
    gantt.editTask(records[0]);
} else {
    Toast.show('No selected task found');
}

Hi tasnim,

it's about

edit task

We not have popup for

add new task

?

Then you could listen for this event https://bryntum.com/products/gantt/docs/api/Gantt/data/TaskStore#event-add to open the task edit after adding a new event

Inside that event use that gantt.editTask(record)

gantt.taskStore.on('add', (event) => {
    gantt.editTask(event.records[0]);
})

It's ok for case add new, but for other cases (move tasks) << after moving, edit popup task appear. Do we have any option to cash only for case

add new task/subtask/milestone

?

Do you have task editor dialog appeared when you move task after you added this code?

gantt.taskStore.on('add', (event) => {
    gantt.editTask(event.records[0]);
})

Yes, I've task editor dialog appeared.

Could you please elaborate a bit? I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to achieve
