Discussion

Change bar formatting that appear in any view, such as the Gantt Chart and Resource Graph views. Change the shape, pattern, and color of the bars, as well as change properties specific to the particular view. For example, in the Gantt Chart view, you can add a start shape and an end shape to a bar; while in the Resource Graph view, you can hide and display the bars as desired.

Change the properties using default settings from the Gantt Chart Tools , Format contextual tab, Gantt Chart Styles group.
