Remove tasks from Gantt

If you want to only remove project tasks from a Gantt but keep the task in the project as such, do as follows:

  1. In the Gantt chart, click on the three dots next to task's name and click on Remove Task from Plan.
  2. A window will open. InLoox asks you again to confirm the removal of the task. Click on Delete. DO NOT PUT A CHECK MARK FOR Permanently delete tasks from the project!

The task will only be removed from the Gantt chart. 

The task will still be in the Kanban board/task list.

Delete tasks in Gantt

To delete a task completely from both the Gantt chart and the project as such, do the following:

  1. In the Gantt chart, click on the edit button next to the task's name.
  2. In the side panel, click on the three dots and click on Delete Task.

WARNING This deletes the task immediately without InLoox asking you to confirm the deletion!

  1. You can also delete a task completely by clicking on the three dots next to its name in the Gantt chart and clicking on Remove Task from Plan.
  2. InLoox asks you again if you only want to remove it from the Gantt chart, or if you want to permanently delete it from the project. If you want to do that, set a check mark for Permanently remove tasks from the project.
  3. Then click on Delete.

Now, the task is removed from the Gantt chart and deleted from the project.

WARNING Both, the removal and the deletion of tasks from the Gantt chart cannot be undone! 


Deleting an activity with linked tasks will also remove the tasks from the Gantt chart and - if the check mark is set - will also delete those tasks from the project. More details in the help article on deleting project planning elements.
