Printing Gantt to PDF with a filter -> blank

DGIONET

I am filtering my Gantt chart to only show the tasks for a subset of the team. Looks just fine on the screen (Chrome and Edge). But when I print, I get nothing (see image).

Any ideas?

Hi @DGIONET

I hope you're well and safe!

Strange!

Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots of the Report builder/Filter? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Best,

Hi Andree,

The process is pretty straightforward (which is why I am so puzzled). Maybe it is a limitation of the type of account I currently use.

I have a Gantt chart with resources. I applied a filter to see a subset of the Gantt chart for only the selected team.

Then, I see the filtered Gannt:

Hello @DGIONET

Thank you so much for the additional information on this. Upon reviewing what you have, I am unable to replicate the same issue and confirm whats causing this behaviour. I created a test using the same account plan as what you have & compare it to a different account plan - both are working as expected so its not due to the type of Smartsheet account plan you have.

I created a Gantt View Project with Filters enabled & only selected the columns I want shown in the Print Settings. When exported, the PDF shows the data that needs to be shown.

I suggest submitting a Smartsheet Support ticket on this to help with troubleshooting on your end. I believe its best to do a screenshare session with a Support specialist on this topic!

Cheers!

Yes, it's straightforward, and it should work. Have you tried on another computer? It might be something with the printer driver.

If you haven’t already, I would recommend that you reach out to the Smartsheet Support Team.

Let me know what you find out!
