Tutorial Step 10: Create Hammock Tasks

A hammock task is a task where the amount of time it takes to complete the task is dependent upon the completion of the task that precedes it and the start of the task that comes after.
For example, if you were to prepare a written document, the time allotted for editing would vary depending on the completion of the document and its due date.
To create a hammock task, first create a finish-start dependency with the preceding task and a start-finish dependency with the task that comes after. (See more on dependencies for how to create a Start to Finish dependency.)
Then, select the the soon-to-be hammock task; from the action menu in the sidebar (or the context menu), select Type ▸ Hammock.
