Need Help with Calendar View Task Label Display
I am just learning Smartsheet and this is probably an issue with an obvious fix. I want to see my tasks displayed for my project in the calendar view. My tasks are listed in the primary column and they are visible in the gantt view. I can see the task when I double click on the task and takes me to the edit box. Any help would be great.
thx

Hello csnead,
Smartsheets Calendar references the primary column to label your calendar events. I don't see a setting to reference a different column name. Your best bet is to make sure your primary column isn't hidden, and then populate the Primary column with the data from your task names.

I think it would help if you will show a screen shot of the grid view to see how your tasks are defined, where you define the dates, etc.

Thanks for responding. Here is a screenshot of the grid view.

It seems ok.
can you check if on both dates column properties the column is defined as Date column and not text?
-
also, if I can see the primary column definition that might help

When you right click on the header for Campaign and Tactics column and choose column properties, does the pop-up include text that says the primary column can only be a text/number column type as in my screenshot below?

Were you able to get this resolved?
