The trades play the most important role in construction phase planning, alongside the date.  Therefore, the trades are intelligently set up in the BauMaster application in the overview of all project settings.

In the project settings, you can activate individual trades for the desired project and assign them a color.

Click on the color to open the color picker tool and select the desired color for the construction schedule. Use the small arrows in the bottom right to switch between RGB, HLS, and HEX color modes, or use the eyedropper tool to pick a color from anywhere in your browser window.
