I'm looking to setup two tasks -- one for "Meeting" and another for "Schedule Meeting". I'd like the "Schedule Meeting" one to dynamically start 2 weeks prior to the "Meeting" task, which has other dependencies on the rest of the project.
I've tried a number of different options related to both predecessors and constraints. Anyone have any thoughts on how to do it?

what initially occurs to me is that workfront doesn't have a listing for "w" to mean "week" in the lag types overview:
If I wanted to do 2 weeks, I'd indicate it using "10d" and start experimenting from there.

OMG that totally worked! It's nuts, the UI accepts "2w" but to your point, it only does the calculation properly with "10d". It looks from that link like the "w" means "day of week", which is bonkers.
haha I'm sure someone wants something to start based on what day of the week it is. Luckily my users have never gotten that deep into predecessors.
