Select a block of tasks that you want to link, right-click anywhere in the selected block, and then select the Add Dependency item on the shortcut menu. Does that work for you? I just tested and it does work for me. Let us know and we will try to help you.

Dale_HowardMVP This did work for me. Hoping it goes back to the intended format via the timeline or dependency column or even via the "open details" prompt. Thank you!
- mattsears1818Aug 04, 2023Copper ContributorThanks, Dale. This works for me. It's an extremely slow process compared to how I normally do it... but it does work for now.

Just curious, are the other options to create a dependency also blocked for you? One being the dependency column and simply typing the associated dependency line in that block to link i? Or the highly suggested one, in the timeline screen, simply dragging the dot to the wanted dependency? None of these work for me. NOTE: I’m working on the web version.
