    Tasks on the Timeline

    Tasks with a start date and/or due dateappear as horizontal bars on the timeline. Tasks without dates are listed in the "Unscheduled" section at the bottom.

    Task bars

    Tasks with both start and due dates appear as colored bars spanning their duration.

    Milestones

    Tasks with a single date (or same start/due) appear as a task-type icon at that point.

    Overdue

    Tasks past their due date show a "Late" badge on their bar.

    Completed

    Completed tasks appear faded with a strikethrough title.

    Drag & Resize

    Reschedule tasks directly on the timeline:

    Zoom Levels

    Switch between three zoom levels using the calendar dropdown in the toolbar:

    Day

    Individual days with weekday labels. Best for short-term planning.

    Week

    Hold Ctrl and scroll to zoom in/out with your mouse wheel.

    Grouping

    Group tasks using the grouping dropdown in the toolbar:

    By assignee

    See each team member's workload side by side.

    By status

    Group by card/column to see pipeline stages on the timeline.

    By priority

    High, medium, and low priority tasks in separate groups.

    No grouping

    All tasks in a single flat list.

    Click a group header to collapse/expand it.

    The left sidebar shows a scrollable task list that stays in sync with the timeline grid. Click any task to open its detail modal.

    On desktop, drag the sidebar edge to resize it. On mobile, tap the hamburger menu to open the task list as a slide-in drawer.

    Right-Click Menu

    Right-click any task bar or milestone to access quick actions:

    • Open task — opens the task detail modal
    • Remove start date / Remove due date — clear individual dates
    • Change priority — set high, medium, or low

    Unscheduled Tasks & Quick Create

    Tasks without dates appear in a collapsible "Unscheduled" section at the bottom. You can:

    • Drag an unscheduled task onto the timeline grid to assign a date
    • Double-click an empty grid area to create a new task at that date

    Follow Mode

    When you follow a teammate, your timeline syncs automatically. If they open the timeline, yours opens too. Sidebar resizing is also mirrored so cursor positions stay accurate during presentations.
