Set tasks visibility in gantt timeline
Overview: task visibility in the Gantt timeline
The Schedule module can display tasks that have a start and end date from several modules. Task visibility settings let you show only the task types you need in your personal view.
Hidden tasks are not deleted; they remain in their original module.
Any project role can adjust their own visibility.
- You can find the menu at Schedule - eye icon (task visibility settings).
- This changes only your view of the schedule. Other users are unaffected.
How to edit your timeline view
- Go to the Schedule module in your project.
- In the top toolbar, click the eye icon (task visibility settings).
- Select the task types you want to see: Schedule tasks (created in the schedule), General tasks (created in the table overview), and Module tasks (from other modules, for example checklists).
- Close the menu to apply your changes. The schedule refreshes and shows only the selected types.
