Deleting tasks related to baseline tasks

Baseline tasks are not deleted after deleting related tasks, which means that:

 Baseline tasks with no related tasks (after they have been deleted) are shown in black
 Baseline tasks with no related tasks (after they have been deleted) are shown at the bottom of
the Gantt chart.
This feature is unique to TILOS; when you erase a task in Microsoft Project or Primavera P6, you can no
longer show its baseline task. To hide baseline tasks from deleted tasks, select Tools > Baseline
Manager to edit them.
