Task bar colors in report calendar view

Tryg

The taskbars in my report calendar view aren't reflecting the taskbar colors in the underlying sheets, making it hard to tell which sheet the task is from. Anyone got any insight? Thx.

Hi - 

Do you have any screenshots to share - I have created a few projects with different colors and then pulled into a report - it reflects the colors in the underlying sheets.

Hi Tryg,

Where did you change the colors? In the Gantt view or thru Conditional Formatting?

The below articles might help.

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!

Sean,

Screen1.png shows a card view of the underlying sheet in my report. Note that the orange task bar color was set through the Workspace. Card taskbars and Gantt taskbars are the same color in this sheet.

Screen2.png shows a calendar view in a report that pulls from the sheet shown in Screen1.png. Note the taskbar colors don't match the colors in Screen1.png.

I've been in contact with Smartsheet Support, and they acknowledge the problem, but haven't come up with a solution. For some reason, my report doesn't behave like theirs's.

Thanks for taking the time for this. I totally appreciate it. tk.

Tryg, 

I would be interested to know what Smartsheet comes back with on this one - I have tried to reproduce by: 

• Changing the taskbar at the workspace level
• Changing the taskbar by conditional formatting

and i'm unable to replicate your results!
