The Gantt View

Grid columns

The left grid shows these columns (hidden columns can be shown via the column menu):

ColumnDefaultNotes
TaskVisibleThe milestone name; long names truncate with a tooltip
Forecast Start / Forecast EndVisibleDrive the taskbar
DurationVisibleEditable, in days
ProgressVisible0–100, the taskbar fill
DependencyVisiblePredecessor expression
DashboardHiddenShow this milestone on the dashboard
Baseline Start / Baseline EndHiddenLocked on parent rows
Actual Start / Actual EndHiddenRecorded reality
NoteHiddenFree text

Columns support sorting, per-column filtering (filter menu on each column), resizing, reordering, and show/hide via the column menu. The grid loads unsorted by default.

Timeline & bars

  • Each milestone renders one taskbar positioned by its Forecast dates, with a progress fill.
  • Parent (summary) rows render as gray summary bars spanning their children.
  • Baseline bar — with the Apply baseline display toggle on, the baseline (Planned) bar renders beneath the taskbar in slate as the variance reference. A milestone with no baseline dates renders no baseline bar.
  • Task labels — shown on/around the bars when the Show task labels toggle is on.
  • Today marker — the current date is always shown as a vertical line; it is not controlled by any toggle.
  • Event markers — user-defined vertical lines, controlled by the Show Event Markers toggle.
  • Holidays / non-working days — shaded on the timeline per the working week and holidays list.

Zoom

Use Zoom in / Zoom out to change the timeline scale, and Zoom to fit to fit the whole schedule in view.
