What a planner means

Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart is Oracle Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart. In the Gantt Chart, click the text attachment. Press the Delete key. It is a how-to. It is not stored as its own table. It does not create, edit, or delete a relationship. It does not delete an activity. It is not the Text attachment object note, not Add a text attachment, not Hide a curtain attachment, not Delete a curtain attachment, not Delete a bar from the Gantt Chart, not Delete an activity, not TASKPRED, not EPPM copied onto Professional, and not Microsoft delete text box.

Oracle does print a how-to titled Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart. Oracle does not print a menu item named Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart. That how-to fetched prints no View menu, no Layout Options bar, no OK, no Apply, no Save, no Yes, and no Hide. Do not invent those on this how-to.

Oracle Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart (Professional):

  • "In the Gantt Chart, click to select the text attachment you want to remove."
  • "Press the Delete key."

Add a text attachment is a different how-to. Layout Options bar → Attachments, Text. See Add a Text Attachment to a Gantt Chart.

Text attachment is a different object note. Leave Text Attachment as the object.

Delete a curtain attachment is a different how-to. Double-click the curtain; Delete in the dialog. Do not copy press Delete onto a curtain.

Hide a curtain attachment is a different how-to. Oracle printed no Hide for text. See Hide a Curtain Attachment in a Gantt Chart.

Professional vs EPPM

Professional — click the text attachment; press Delete. No menu / OK / Apply on that page.

EPPM web — Oracle Working with the Activity Gantt Chart does not print click text attachment / press Delete. Do not copy this Professional how-to onto EPPM.

Primavera Cloud is a different product. Do not copy it here.

XER

The how-to is not an XER table. Oracle’s project XER map TOC has no TEXT / ATTACH / REMOVETEXT table. Do not invent a view %T. Removing a text attachment does not write TASK. Layouts travel as .plf. A Viewer cannot reconstruct that the planner used this how-to.

Microsoft Project

Microsoft Project can delete a Gantt text box. Do not map that as P6 Remove a text attachment from a Gantt Chart. Do not claim MPXJ writes a real MPP.

Don't

  • Invent View > Remove a text attachment, Layout Options bar, OK, Apply, Save, Yes, or Hide on this how-to.
  • Treat this as Delete an activity or Delete a bar.
  • Collapse this onto Add a text attachment, Hide/Delete curtain, or the Text attachment object.
  • Copy this Professional how-to onto EPPM.
  • Invent a REMOVETEXT XER table, or reconstruct the how-to from TASK dates.
  • Map MSP delete text box as this how-to.
  • Claim MPXJ writes a real MPP.
