Select the item you want to grant sub-tasks.To convert a task to a group with new child tasks inside it:

There are a few ways to approach grouping, depending on whether you are starting with an existing set of items you want to add to a group, converting an existing item to a group, or creating a brand new group task. When a task gains its first child task it is converted to a group task, and takes properties unique to to the Group task type. To represent task numbering as a flat list of integers without taking hierarchy into account, choose View > Task Outline > Flat Numbering instead. The first child of Task 1 will be Task 1.1, the first child of Task 1.1 will be Task 1.1.1, and so on. When View > Task Outline > Hierarchical Numbering is selected, tasks at the top of the hierarchy are represented by integers, while tasks at lower levels have points appended to them for each level of hierarchy below the top.

Tasks are represented in the Title column by a number that precedes each task. However, it can be useful to group tasks into hierarchical arrangements to better represent their relationships. When initially creating a project, tasks can be organized in a flat list with each task a peer of every other. By selecting tasks-represented by bars in the chart-and moving them around, or choosing from an array of transformative commands related to task and project structure, you can accurately model the work at hand. Organizing tasks with the tools provided in the Gantt chart, the Task inspector, and menu commands is a fast and effective way of adding shape to your project. See Project Outline Columns for a complete list. The columns available for display in the Gantt View’s task outline are the same as those available in Project Outline View.

The outline on the left side of the Gantt View works the same as that in Project Outline View both outlines display the list of tasks that the project contains, both add tasks in the same way, and both can be customized with your choice of columns independently from one another. The outline provides a space to quickly create, edit, and group related tasks, while the Gantt chart is a visual representation of the project, with built-in tools for editing tasks and the relationships between them. Gantt View consists of two parts: a task outline on the left, and the Gantt chart on the right.
