Description
Adjusts the padding around task bars in the timeline when bar_height is set to "full"
bar_height_padding: number
Example

gantt.init("gantt_here");
Default value: 9
Details
The bar_height_padding config defines the vertical padding for task bars in the timeline when gantt.config.bar_height is set to "full". The height of a task bar is calculated as gantt.config.row_height - gantt.config.bar_height_padding.
- Setting this config to
0will make the task bars occupy the full height of the row. - Increasing the value adds more space above and below the bars.
The example below shows a smaller padding value, which leaves less space around the task bars:
gantt.config.bar_height_padding = 3;

In this example, a larger padding value leaves more empty space above and below the task bars:
gantt.config.bar_height_padding = 14;
