Hello,
What is the best way (if any) to do the attached view in Smartsheet? I would like to show status of projects during the month.
Thanks
Michal
Hi Michal,
You could use cell-linking or a report. It depends on your use case.
Unfortunately, it isn't possible inside Smartsheet to get different sections on one row if that's what you want.
I hope this helps you!

Michal,
Andrée is correct. There is also no way to differentiation coloring of the Gantt chart if the data was on a single row.
I'm curious where the image comes from and the process rules around the coloring. In the past, I have seen something like
[Yellow]-[Green]-[Grey]
and
[Yellow]-[Grey]-[Red]-[Green]
but yours repeats colors, so it isn't based on phases (I assume)

Thanks Craig, this is a power point slide, the colors show the status of the project at the specific month.
Thanks Andree

I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
