Newbie here. Somehow the task name shows above the bar in the Gantt chart but nothing at all in the original panel to the left under the logo. This is not good as i wish to establish hierarchies by indenting etc I know I can select each task in the gant and assign predecessors but it seemed easier to use it in the left hand pane. What have i done please?
