The taskbars in my report calendar view aren't reflecting the taskbar colors in the underlying sheets, making it hard to tell which sheet the task is from. Anyone got any insight? Thx.
Hi -
Do you have any screenshots to share - I have created a few projects with different colors and then pulled into a report - it reflects the colors in the underlying sheets.

Where did you change the colors? In the Gantt view or thru Conditional Formatting?
The below articles might help.

Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
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…
