MS Project: display issue with the bar

Hello,

I'm having an issue with the display of my Gantt chart.
When I set a task with a duration of 2 days, it displays from the start of day 1 to the start of day 2. Therefore, day 2 is not displayed in full, and visually, this gives the impression that the task is only set for one day.

Do you know how to display the entirety of day 2?

Thank you in advance for your help.

config: MS Project 2010

Which display is it? The columns on the left, or the schedule on the right?
In the latter case, what time scale have you set in the format?

Hello,
This is the schedule on the right. The project takes place every Monday for 5 months. So, for the display, I go to the inactive period (right-click), the time scale window opens, and under the lower level tab, I indicate that the units are in days, with a total of 7. This way, only Mondays are displayed.
But the display is not complete for the 2nd day.

Here is a screenshot of the issue in question:

Hello
The project timescale cannot be discontinuous and display only Mondays as you wish. When you specify "every 7 days," it simply means there will be a tick mark every 7 days, and it will not display one day out of seven. For the rest, we need to look at your calendar and the daily duration option to understand what is happening.
Best regards

Good evening,

Thank you very much for your help. I checked and it is indeed the issue you mentioned :)

Do you know if it's possible to hide non-working days, so that only Mondays are displayed?

Best regards

Hello

Yes, to hide the bars: double-click on the timeline, tab "non-working period" then "in front of the Gantt bars"
