Drawing a Gantt Chart

Post by pointeddot »

Hey there,

I want to create a Gantt chart to show which machine is followed by which machine in different jobs.

In the photo you can see, how I would like to have it. I sure went through a lot of examples, but I could not find the same one. It would also be okay, it the chart would be slightly different.

Once again: thank you so much for your help!

Nope, sorry.

Texmaker is only an editor. Usually you have some (La)TeX distribution like TexLive that comes with a package manager to handle the installation of new packages. GNU/Linux distributions often come with LaTeX integrated into their package manager, but I have no idea whether MacOS does the same.

Maybe somebody else can help you...

But, as I already said, normally the installation of new packages is handled by some package manager.

I guess everything should be installed on your system right now.

Please open a terminal and type

Code: Select all

texdoc pgfgantt
, then confirm with enter. The manual should be opened, and you can use the package.

If not, try

Code: Select all

tlmgr --install pgfgantt
, maybe you need sudo privileges.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
