Default Roll Up Summary Name does not appear on gantt chart

Hello,

I have the following Roll Up summary task:

1 - Storage Server
1.1 - PREP Phase
1.1.1 - Pre Checks
1.1.2 - Backup
1.1.3 - Shutdown
1.2 - MOVE Phase
1.2.1 - Physical Move
1.3 - POST Phase
1.3.1 - Power Up
1.3.2 - Post Checks




I would like to have the name of the main summary task "Storage Server" to appear on my Gantt chart, to the left of the rollup bar and the resource name on the right of the rollup bar, as shown for example in the .png attachment.
So far I managed to get the names of all subtaks 1.x and 1.x.x to appear on my chart but I cannot make it work for the main summary task.

Can someone help?
zip file also includes my .mpp file in case it helps.

Thank you
Nantia

It looks like somehow the bar style definition has gotten corrupt. Create a new bar style for summary tasks and it works fine.

By the way - you should not have resources assigned to summary tasks.

JulieS, thank you very much for prompt reply! Actually your reply made me "play around" a bit more with rolling up tasks and I discovered that if I click on a specific point on the main rollup summary bar, I can make it work! That I did not know really, that I actually have to click specifically on the black line bar which is visible during weekends..! Many thanks again, you opened my eyes! :-)
