Please enable the Timeline view in Report and Dashboard. This is a better way to present timelines in a dashboard vs Gantt charts.

We love this idea, too! While we don't have a specific release date yet, being able to view your sheets in Timeline View on a Dashboard is something that we are actively working on.

    When embeding a sheet into a dashboard the timeline view is not an option to select. This would give more bang for the buck of the new view if it would be available as one of the view options.

    Hi Smartsheet team,

    I would like to have the following features added to Dashboard "Report" widget.

    The new Timeline feature should be an option to be shown in the report. We can only publish the dashboard with status details to Executives. So we have a portfolio/program report out of the individual project plans at high level that we use to create roadmaps and status reports. If there is a way to show timeline view instead of gantt chart view in reports it would look much more presentable.

    Please add these features in report widget

    Being able to publish a timeline view on a dashboard would plug a large gap in functionality for us. Calendar views look great if your project is a few days - but are no use for things lasting multiple weeks. Gannt views are too cluttered for high level visualization. The Timeline is just right.

    Yes! A time line that allows several ticks within the start and finish of a project. The visual impact is much better than a gantt sometimes. Having this will allow users to choose a timeline or gantt to show what they are trying to convey. Even a stackable bar chart would be nice showing the start and end dates of each part of a project, without using a traditional gantt..

    Totally agree with this. Often asked to produce a top level timeline for senior leadership. It would be good if you could go through the plan and choose what you want to show - whether its headings or certain milestones, or even certain activities. If it could plot that on a tailorable timeline (that you could choose), showing years, or months or weeks etc it would save loads of bespoke efforts to produce something consumable at the top table!

    Agreed! Being able to embed a Timeline view into our dashboard would allow us to display a much cleaner view of our yearly plan
