How to Show Cost / Budget on Gantt Chart
Hello - I used a simple project plan template and the Gantt chart is not showing anything. I would like for it to show at least the budget / cost, and if possible, I would also like it to show the Task. How can I do that?

Gantt colors and Dashboards - is there an easier way for my issue?
The issue I'm having is that I'm creating a milestone dashboard with gantt view, but need to be able to change the colors of the gantt chart, which can only be done in the grid sheet.

Gantt Chart Alignment
I created a smartsheet using the Gantt chart template. For some reason the Gantt chart lines are slightly larger than the task lines. So when you're looking at a task and look right to see the gantt chart, it does not align with the proper task (Screenshot attached). This seems like Gantt 101 - The line has to match up…

Update Project Status Automatically from Gantt Chart
I am currently using Smartsheet to create a Gantt chart for each project as well as a table to keep track of project status'. I would really like to have the Gantt chart automatically update the project status so I don't have to do everything twice.
