Toggling resources

[Nikola Tesla]

As I assign the resource to the task, that source is displayed next to the
task bar in the project schedule.
What I want to do is toggle this resources assignment on/off, meaning that
at one point I want to see the tasks and their resources and the next view
would be just a task.
thanks

Go to views menu, more views, make a copy of the gantt view (the default)
and call it what you want.
Apply that view.
Go to the format menu.
Choose barstyles
Select the barstyle with the big blue bar.
Click on the text tab in the bottom half
remove resource name from the barstyle.
Click OK

Now if you want to see names switch to gantt view, If you don't want to see
names switch to your new view.
