How can I change the colour of the progress section of the task bar?
I can see that I can change the colour of the whole task bar in conditional formatting but I only want to change the colour of the progress part for the whole sheet. Any ideas?

Formatting Options of Gantt
Is there any way to format the Gantt portion of my view/print? I need to adjust (narrow) the width of the Gantt columns so my chart fits on one page. Also, it would be great to be able to adjust the direction of the column titles (Jan, Feb, etc.) to display vertically, so I can narrow the columns quite a bit. I would also…

Best Practice for Capturing Project Info on PM project plan
My team is using the Project Management Office template set. I love the template set but I saw this Project Information section on a different project template and I like the idea. I added it to the Project Plan template in our PMO, but I can't figure out how to use it or if there's a better way to capture this…

More than one Baseline + Comments
Dear all, To enhance Smartsheet as a comprehensive PM Application, my company and I find that a crucial feature, baseline management, currently needs to be added. While the ability to set baselines is valuable, the limitation of only being able to set one baseline is a constraint. We propose the implementation of a feature…

Viewing team capacity over time
I am trying to see my team's capacity over multiple projects for each week to see who will have capacity to take on new projects. In the past I've done it by hand to look like this and I know in my mind the demands of each phase for a given project. This is quickly becoming unsustainable as we grow. I have a task list for…

Is there a way to set a constraint on a task's Start Date that can override a predecessor?
We have migrated a fairly complex plan from MS Project to Smartsheet and have been able to line up most of our dates. However, when Predecessors finish early on a task, the start date is impacted, as expected. In MS Project we can use constraints to say the next task cannot start early even if its predecessors end early.…

Is there a way to move a dependant date further out without using lag?
I have a background of using MS Project where 'predecessors' are the equivalent of 'dependencies'. I have got used to smartsheets pretty quickly and for the most part get along with it but feel that there is a definite limitation when using dependencies as follows: In MS project if I have line 1 completing 28/11/23, I can…
