    Hi Ee Yii
    Try redefining the representation of summary tasks in the Gantt chart.
    Go to Menu bar > Gantt Chart Format > Bar Styles > Format > Bar styles and select, if it exists, Summary, cut and paste at the end of the list.
    If it does not exist, you will have to create it at the end of the list, as shown in the attached image.
