About This Feature

Overview

Gantt View Gantt Chart Settings is a project scheduling feature in WPS Office for iOS multi-dimensional tables. It lets you assign a start time field and an end time field for tasks, then view task arrangements on a timeline.

Core tasks include:

Configure Gantt chart fields: assign the start time field and end time field for the Gantt view.
Adjust task time: drag either end of a task bar or drag the middle section to change the task time range.

This feature is useful for project scheduling, task tracking, collaboration planning, and phase progress review. After you adjust a task bar, the related date values are synced back to the original data table.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	In Gantt View on iOS multi-dimensional tables, you can set the start time field and end time field, then drag task bars to adjust task time.	Microsoft Project uses the Gantt Chart view to display tasks with start dates and finish dates across a timeline.	Google Sheets timeline view displays project information such as task start date, end date, description, and owner.	Notion Timeline uses database date properties or date ranges to plot items over time and supports dragging item length.	Adobe provides comparable Gantt functionality mainly in Workfront, where task and project information can be viewed in a Gantt chart with adjustable time periods.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: field setup and task-bar adjustment are handled in the same Gantt view. Distinct: after a task bar is adjusted, the related date data syncs back to the original table, which fits quick mobile scheduling.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft's official page focuses more on desktop project planning views in Project.	Compared with WPS: Google's official information focuses on creating and viewing timeline layouts in a web-based Sheets workflow.	Compared with WPS: Notion centers on database views and requires date properties or date ranges before the timeline can be plotted.	Compared with WPS: Adobe's comparable Gantt capability is part of Workfront work management rather than a built-in iOS office table view.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to configure start and end fields directly on mobile and adjust schedules by dragging task bars, WPS offers a more concentrated workflow on iOS. Microsoft, Google, Notion, and Adobe each provide related timeline or Gantt capabilities, but their official workflows are more oriented to desktop project management, web collaboration databases, or separate work management products.
