Hello,

The feature that I am requesting is to be able to **right click a gantt chart item and choose a color for it.** Also a possible improvement to the color choice. An example is below.

The color of tasks in the gantt chart is determined by the color of the task. You can already set it by double clicking on the task and then choosing a color.
