Set or Modify the Task Type

  1. In the TimeLiner window > Tasks tab, click the task you want to modify.

  2. From the Task Type drop-down list, select the type of task you wish this task to be. By default, you can choose from:

    • Construct
    • Demolish
    • Temporary

    The task type defines how the items attached to the task will be displayed during simulation. For example, a default construction sequence would start with all items hidden, as the task starts the attached items will be displayed in transparent green, then as the task ends the attached items will be displayed as they are in the normal model display. Task types themselves can be defined and new types created on the Configure Tab.

Note: You can quickly change the task type for all selected tasks. To do this, press SHIFT or CTRL key and select required tasks, right-click the selection, and click Fill Down on the context menu. The task type specified for the first selected task will be used for all tasks in the range.
