Task Bars Explained


Each task on the Timeline is a horizontal bar on the chart area.

  • Name — the task name is printed on the bar
  • Progress fill — the solid part shows percent complete; the lighter part shows work still to do
  • ✔ at 100% — a checkmark appears next to the name when the task is fully complete
  • Lanes — overlapping tasks move to separate rows instead of stacking on one row

Bar length runs from planned start to planned finish. Tasks without both dates, or with Show In Timeline = No, do not appear.
