Resource allocation inheritance suggestion

#1

I have been creating sub tasks and allocating resources for each sub task.
I find it would be useful if the main task would inherit the allocated resources, the same way it inherits its duration and display it!
The problem i have now is that if i compress the task, i cannot see the resource needed at a glance.

In a similar way, it would be great if setting resources for the main task, would automatically appear as same setting for any subtask (that could then be modified and supersede the main one). I am aware there is a loop there, but hopefully you find a solution…

First time I heard this… Never had the need of this and seems confusing to me… sorry…

I agree that any “automated” way of propagating resources up or down the task hierarchy is harmful, however, the option to show a read-only list of resources allocated to sub-tasks might be useful.
