Custom Field and Graphical Indicator

M

Matteo

Dear all,
I created some custom fields that has the Values to Display area set to
graphical indicator, and I modified it to show 3 different icons depending on
the range that the value is.
Actually I cannot see any graphical indicator, I checked ranges and they are
ok:
Test Value(s)
Image
is greater than or equal to 0,10
Green Icon
is within 0,10;0,20
Yellow Icon
is greater than or equal to 0,20
Red Icon

To be sure I changed the "criteria for" setting for summary and project
summary rows into inherit from non-summary anyway I cannot see any graphical
indicator into the project center's views that contain this custom field...

Ideas to troubleshoot it?

Thank you all

Matteo

ps.

All of the project center's views that contain this custom field have also
grouping enabled at only the first level.

Matteo -

Are these Task level or Project level custom fields? If there are
task level, can you see them in Project Professional? In PWA are you
trying to see the indicators in a Project Center view or a Project
Detail view. If it's a Project Center view, Project Server is only
displaying the summary level, so the indicators must be based on a
Project level formula and indicator. Also, be sure and open each
project you want the indicators displayed in, hit F9 to recalculate
the project information and republish the project.

Hope that helps,

Sorry Mark, I wrote few things, actually is a project custom field and inside
it there is a formula that works fine, the view that give me problems is into
the project center, I can see calculated value but not the graphical
icon...sincerely I don't know what is causing this.
