I have had users of our Gantt chart actively using it for about 6 months now. I was wondering if this makes any sense, or if you can maybe provide me with some information -
When you make changes to a Gantt chart project, and close the browser. then open it later (minutes later, weeks later) It will still be saving / updating. [I can tell this by the task names in the tree on the left still being bold]
Why does this happen? Should we be cleaning our storage? Or is this in place to ensure changes get (eventually) saved.
If this is unclear please let me know, and I will provide more information.
Hi,
normally, that shouldn’t happen, dhtmlxgantt has no built-in mechanism for storing such state between page reloads.
So I suspect such behavior is caused by some external code. Can you give a link to the page where I could check your gantt chart?
I can’t give you a link sorry. I will tell my team that there is no local storage happening from you guys. I think it may be coming from auto schedule on page load. But I think theres still more to it.
I think it may be coming from auto schedule on page load.
That could be it. Auto scheduling fires after loading events, and if your backend fails to save changes done by auto scheduling and returns an error - scheduling will be performed each time you open page/reload data, and tasks will be constantly in ‘update in progress’ state.
You can easily check it by disabling auto scheduling for data loading: docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/api__gant … onfig.html
