Summary / When to Use This
The Gantt view helps you visualize, plan, and manage tasks across your project timeline. Use it when you want a big-picture view of deadlines, dependencies, and progress—or when you need to adjust timelines quickly.
Steps to Follow
1. Open the Gantt View
Go to your project.
Click the Gantt tab at the top.
You’ll see two sections:
Task Table (left): A structured list of tasks and modules.
Timeline (right): A visual timeline of tasks, dates, and dependencies.
Pro tip: Collapse modules in the task table to simplify the timeline and focus only on what matters to you.
2. Create and Manage Tasks
Add a new task or module: Click the + button in the task table.
Edit or complete a task: Click the task name in either the table or the timeline.
3. Update Task Dates
You have two options to adjust schedules:
Resize: Drag the start or end edge of a task bar to change dates.
Move: Drag the whole task bar to shift it forward or backward.
Pro tip: If you plan to update many dates at once, you can turn off due date notifications in the project’s Settings to avoid spamming your team.
To update the entire project timeline at once, adjust the Project End Date in Settings. This won’t trigger individual task notifications.
4. Customize What You See
Use the column selector in the task table to show details like Assignee, Start Date, Due Date, Progress, Dependencies, or Visibility.
This helps you tailor the view to show the most relevant details for your workflow.
5. Track and Complete Tasks
The inner bar of each task shows progress.
Click a task to mark it complete or update its details.
Colors and Indicators:
Gray bar = Not started
Yellow bar = In progress
Green bar = Completed
Red dot = Task is overdue
6. Add and Manage Dependencies
Hover near the start or end of a task until the dependency handle appears.
Drag and drop to connect it to another task.
Dependencies show as gray arrows on the timeline.
If you drag tasks with dependencies, you can adjust how those rules behave in the upper-right dependency settings menu of the Gantt view.
Tips & Troubleshooting
Focus in: Collapse irrelevant modules to declutter your view.
Reschedule smartly: Use bulk updates via Project End Date if shifting an entire timeline.
Avoid noise: Turn off notifications before making mass date changes.
