Blank SmartColumn cells

Question:

My Indicator column shows additional indicators on blank rows. How can I get rid of these extra symbols?

My schedule has a stoplight column. On some rows, which are blank, the stoplight still shows. Is there a way to suppress these?

Answer:

For rows which do not contain any data, yet the SmartColumn value and indicator appear automatically, the SmartColumn value can be displayed as blank. This feature is especially useful for task rows which are there for appearance, only.

Right-click the task row and choose Blank SmartColumn Cells. To display the blanked cell data, choose Show SmartColumn Cells.

Optionally, go to Tools | Program Options | General and Blank SmartColumn Cells on all Blank Lines. This overrides the line by line setting.
