Depends On Link not available in Plans

We just completed an upgrade to version 5.0.1. In many of our plan views we colorize based on the Depends On link type. The option to use a Depends On link is no longer available when using colors. The opposite end of the link (Blocks) is a valid choice. Where did the dependsOn option go?

Randy,

I could verify in my 5.0.1 that the dependsOn: entry is missing from Plan View --> color and that is also does not work to handcode dependsOn:set into the color display.
Could you please open a defect against RTC 5.0.1 on jazz.net and link to this forum entry?

As a short term workaround if it is feasible I would add tags to each work item which has a dependsOn link (i.e. query for those work items with the link which do not have the tag yet regularly and use bulk operation to add the tag) and then set a color:tag= ... in your plans.

If this is a helpful answer to your question please mark it as accepted.
