About This Feature

Overview

Gantt Chart Settings is a timeline configuration feature in the Android Gantt view for multidimensional tables. It lets you assign a start date field and an end date field to tasks, then review project schedules on a timeline.

Core capabilities include:

  • Configure Gantt fields: assign the start date field and end date field for the Gantt view.
  • Adjust task timing: drag a task bar to change the start date, end date, or the full schedule range.

This feature is useful for project scheduling, task follow-up, and team collaboration. After you adjust a task bar, the related date values sync back to the corresponding fields in the table.
