Graphical Indicators with Flag

[wildo]

I'm trying to display a graphical indicator if a project-level custom Flag
field is set to Yes, and can't get it to work. I'm using equal Yes, tried it
with a proposal and a project, tried setting the indicator to inherit from
non-summary and summary, tried Yes in quotes (which rejected), tried F9 and
republising from Project Pro - nothing works.

We're on 2007 Sp1, soon going to Sp2.

Any ideas?

Hi Wildo,

Do any other graphical indicators work?
If it's a project level custom field then the roll-up to summary rows won't
make a difference. Make sure you have closed down project and re-opened it,
that way the Enterprise Global is re-read. Make a change to the project
(changing a task name or duration normally does it), followed by F9. Insert
the column into the view - does the graphical indicator show there (it
should). If all is well in the project, publish again. There were issues
pre SP1 but SP1 cured all/the majority of them.

I was able to get it working with a combination of your suggestions and
entering into the Project Summary rather than Non-summary.

Thanks.
