Timeline in Gantt-Chart

Since InLoox 11.14 (September 2024), a timeline is available in the project planning above the Gantt diagramm. You can pin any activity, summary activity and milestone from your Gantt-chart to the timeline. This helps you visualize the most important phases or milestones in your project. The timeline feature is available in projects as well as in the project list as a multi-project timeline view. For more info on the timeline in the project list, please read this help article.

Show Timeline in Project Planning

1. In InLoox Web App, open a project, click on Planning.
2. Click on the three dots on the right above the Gantt chart.
3. Activate Show timeline. The timeline is above the Gantt chart.

Show planning elements in the timeline & remove them

1. Mark e.g. a milestone and right-click on it.
2. In the context menu click on Show in timeline.
3. The planning element is now pinned to the timeline. 
4. If you want to remove an element from the timeline, right-click on it in the Gantt and click on Remove from Timeline in the context menu.

Tips for the timeline

• When you click on an element in the timeline, InLoox automatically marks and navigates to this planning element in the Gantt chart. 
• The timeline always shows the time frame spanning from the earliest pinned element to the one with latest date. 
• Add the column Show in Timeline to the Gantt chart. Those elements that are pinned to the timeline now have a check mark. Whenever you want to add or remove a planning element, simply set or remove the check mark in the box. This is especially for users, who work on tablets or smartphones.
