Boards: Timeline

Use Timeline to place records across a date range. Group records by a project or person when the table has a suitable field.

Set up the timeline

Choose the date field or start and end fields used by the view. Choose a grouping field, such as project or person, and a zoom level. Add or select date fields first if the table has none.

Move or resize a record

Drag a block to move its date range. Drag its left or right edge to change the start or end date. While dragging, the block preview and its date range update. When records are grouped by person, drag a block to another person’s row to change its grouping if you have permission.

On a touch screen, press and hold a block to pick it up, then drag it. Use two fingers to pinch in or out and zoom the timeline. Use ⌘Z on macOS or Ctrl+Z on Windows/Linux to undo a schedule change.

Choose Today to return to the current date. Use the zoom controls to see a wider or narrower range. Records without dates appear in the unscheduled list when it is available.

Read the view

Each bar represents a record and its date range. The row shows the selected grouping. A warning marker identifies overlapping records in a person grouping; it does not block the schedule.
