Gantt supports baselines for comparing your current schedule against a saved snapshot. The Compare with History feature allows you to select a historical date, a named baseline, or a specific revision number. When active, baseline bars appear below the actual task bars, showing the originally planned start and end dates alongside the current dates.
Yes, Gantt provides an export-to-PNG feature accessible from the toolbar. The export panel renders the Gantt chart as an image and provides download and print buttons. You can apply date filtering to control which portion of the schedule is included in the export.
The Gantt widget cannot be exported to PDF format. Use the PNG export feature for sharing static schedule snapshots.
Task bar colors can be set in two ways. Each work item type has a default color that is automatically applied to its task bars. For more dynamic control, use item scripts to apply conditional color logic based on work item fields such as status, priority, or custom attributes. See Scripting Questions for more on item scripts.
The Gantt grid supports configurable columns with multiple template types including start date, end date, deadline, owner/assignees, duration, progress, and custom columns. The assignee column supports two display modes: initials (showing user initials in circles) and fullname (showing full names). A special workload column appears when you select a resource in the resource view.
Click the hamburger menu icon in the first column header of the Gantt grid. This opens a menu with options for column visibility, timescale selection, and navigation settings. You can show or hide columns and adjust the timescale granularity from this menu.
Yes, set the hideToolbar widget parameter to true to hide the entire toolbar. When the toolbar is hidden and you are in edit mode, a floating save button appears as a fallback so you can still save your changes.
When using hideToolbar, ensure users have an alternative way to access essential functions like save and refresh.
Set the onlyLeafTasks widget parameter to true to display only leaf-level tasks (tasks with no children). Parent summary tasks are hidden from the Gantt chart, giving you a flat view of all actionable work items without the hierarchical grouping.
The Gantt chart uses several visual indicators to communicate task status at a glance:
  • Progress fill — the filled portion of each task bar shows completion percentage
  • Overdue deadlines — deadline column values turn red when the task is past due
  • Risk indicator — tasks at risk (past end date) are highlighted with a warning color
  • Conflict markers — tasks with parent-child date range conflicts display a visual conflict indicator
  • Unplanned indicator — tasks with no scheduled dates appear with a special unplanned marker
For additional display customization, explore the Guides section.
