Pin the Work Breakdown Structure Tree

You can display a graphical representation of a work breakdown structure. When you see the WBS icon, you can pin the WBS tree structure to navigate easily between the WBS elements (phases and tasks) that you are working on.

To pin the WBS tree:

1. Click next to the project name. A separate dialog box shows a tree-style graphic that represents the current project's WBS structure.
2. On the dialog box, click to pin the WBS tree so that the dialog box remains open when you select phases and tasks.
3. Select the appropriate action:
   • To see data for a different phase or task, click its identifier in the pinned tree. When you select an entry from the WBS tree while it is pinned, the tree remains visible.

   • To change the width of the WBS tree, drag its right edge.

   • To close the WBS tree, click the X at the top right corner of the tree.
