How-to Guide
1. Add Grouping
Entry path: bottom toolbar → Tools → Grouping → Add Grouping
- In table view, tap Tools on the bottom toolbar.
- In the panel that opens, select Grouping.
- Tap Add grouping condition.
- Select the field you want to use for grouping.
- Tap OK to finish the setup.
Success Criteria
- On-screen result: task bars in the Gantt view are grouped automatically by the selected field value.
- What you can do next: you can continue to expand, collapse, or review grouped tasks.
Tips While Using
- Common mistake: if you are not already in Gantt view, you may not see the grouping result clearly.
- Environment note: open a file with Smart Form data first.
2. Expand or Collapse Groups
Entry path: tap the expand or collapse icon on the left side of a group title
- After grouping is applied, find the group title in the Gantt view.
- Tap the expand or collapse icon on the left side of the title.
- When collapsed, only the group title remains visible. When expanded, all records in the group are shown.
Success Criteria
- On-screen result: grouped content switches between collapsed and expanded states.
- What you can do next: you can continue reviewing other groups or move to another task area.
Tips While Using
- Common mistake: tapping a task bar itself does not switch the group state. Tap the icon next to the group title instead.
3. Remove Grouping
Entry path: bottom toolbar → Tools → Grouping → existing grouping condition → Delete
- Tap Tools on the bottom toolbar.
- Select Grouping.
- Tap Delete next to the grouping condition that has already been added.
- Confirm that the grouping is removed and check whether tasks return to the default order.
Success Criteria
- On-screen result: group titles disappear and tasks return to the default arrangement.
- What you can do next: you can add another grouping condition or continue reviewing the Gantt chart.
Tips While Using
- Common mistake: deleting a grouping condition does not delete task data.
