Hello, I try to import a .mpp (2007 format file) but the column "% complete" does not populate in ProjectLibre. I have downloaded the latest version. I tried with "% work complete" but the same, all percents are "0 %" I use the french version. Any idea how to import the "% complete" information from a Microsoft project file? Thanks for your help

% complete bug ?
Thank you for your note. I am not sure why this is occurring. We can certainly open existing MS Project files and the % complete is also opened correctly. My co-Founder is based in France. I will ask him to try to open a French MSP file. I would be surprised but there may be something different in the file formats. Can you try a "Save As" in MSP into a different export file ?

We're encountering this issue
We're encountering this issue as well when exporting to XML.
We're using ProjectLibre 1.5.9, our save options are ProjectLibre and XML. The column remains with PL but vanishes with XML.
The column is still there when exported as a PDF.
Thanks, looks like a bug on export with %
That is strange it is not exporting the % complete. Was the project created in ProjectLibre ?
I'm having the same problem
Created my project in ProjectLibre (v1.6.2). When exporting to XML format my client with MsProject is able to import my project, but the Percent Complete does not show up. I also tried Percent Work Complete, but the results are the same. I looked in the XML and cannot find any task attributes that deal with this.
If someone can tell me what the Task Attribute XML tag is, I would be happy to add it in manually for now, at least so I can synch my project with the customer.
What is a bit frustrating is that this bug has been identified since 2014 and there doesn't seem to be a resolution yet (We're now August 2016).
