Title: what is duration !!!
Post by: Peter Johnson on March 13, 2017, 03:28:23 PM
Hey guys

When we want to define "A set of activities has a set of starting times (time slot), there exists an duration flag, could you explain what will it do?

thanks

if "duration" is not checked, than the constraint doesn't care about the duration.

if you check "duration", you can change the number/duration. Now the constraint care only about activities with that duration.

I use that for example to care about all activities with duration 2. i allow only 1st, 3rd and 5th hours/periods. By that the activity with duration 2 is never allowed to start at 2nd, 4th, 6th hour/period. I don't want that, because we have got a break after the 2nd, 4th, 6th hour/period.
