3.00 WINDOWS | MACINTOSH M_PRoject kbusage

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Project for Windows, versions 1.0, 3.0, 3.0a, 4.0
 * Microsoft Project for the Macintosh, versions 1.1, 3.0

-

SUMMARY
The Outline Icons in Project for Windows and Macintosh will not appear for the following reasons:


 * 1) You have selected a view that does not have its screen based on the Gantt Chart or Task Sheet.
 * 2) You have visually merged more than one project file from the Window menu's New Window command.
 * 3) You are in a sorted view.
 * 4) You have turned off the Summary Task command under the Format menu's Outline command.
 * 5) You have set Show Icons=no under the Options menu's Preferences command.

Please note that the last three items on the above list will get saved to either the VIEW.MPV/MICROSOFT PROJECT VIEWS file or to the WINPROJ.INI/MICROSOFT PROJECT SETTING file. This means that even if you exit from Project and then restart Project again, the icons will still be missing.

MORE INFORMATION
The icons can be restored from a sorted view by:


 * 1) From the Format menu, choose Sort.
 * 2) Select Reset.
 * 3) Choose OK.

This will put you in a sorted order with ID numbers in ascending order.

You can restore the icons from a visually merged project by either closing the merged project or switching to another nonmerged project.
