Gantt View Earliest Start Date
How do I get a row on a Gantt chart to show the earliest date from amongst a set of predecessors? I have a gantt chart where I want one row to display a 0-duration task with the earliest start date from amongst five predecessors.

Gantt Chart View in Reports
Please help! I understand that we can't customize the gantt chart bars anymore if it is a parent row but why am I getting random colors on the bar view in my report? I would prefer it remain grey. The first picture is the Smartsheet and the second one is the report pulling from the sheet.

Compiling a multi-department calendar/timeline
This may seem super basic, but I work in tandem with 4 different teams and need to construct a calendar/timeline for all of these separate departments. What is the easiest way to gather the information? Some teams use smartsheet, some use excel, but none have the same format and none really "talk" with each other - hence…

Timescale and zoom Gantt settings copied to new sheets
I noticed that when you copy folders or sheets as "new", some settings like Gantt chart zoom and timescale options do not carry to the new copies, forcing to be updated after the fact and creating extra overhead. It would be great that those configs. would be considered structural and hence be copied as the rest of the…

Incremental Baselines & Dynamic Baseline Linking
Problem: Current Limitations Destructive Updates: Currently, snapping a baseline is a global action for the entire sheet. There is no way to baseline newly added scope (new tasks) without overwriting and erasing the historical variance data of the existing tasks.

The "Master Program View" (Dynamic Sheet Aggregation)
Problem: Current Limitations Reports are "Flat" Lists: Current Reports can aggregate rows from multiple sheets, but they function as static lists. They cannot perform project logic (dependencies, duration calculations) across those sheets. No Cross-Sheet Critical Path: There is no native way to identify a "Critical Path"…

Displaying multiple time periods in Gantt view
Is there a way to display multiple time periods in Gantt view? Example: you have staff members that are your primary people, and they are contracted for 4 months, and then secondary or "fill" staff members that sit in when the primary is away on sabbatical or similar break. Idea here is that the gantt bar on a given row…
