Gantt chart overlap

[jcastr02]

Is there a way you can overlap when items are assigned to same person, (and perhaps just put diff colors) example, Kimberly Hand under assigned to should only have one row so you can see ALL projects in one line for each person.  (gantt chart)

Hi @v-janeyg-msft ,

I stumbled upon this thread and I have the same question, however, I also could not find out the visual you were using. Could you share it with me? 

I currently use Gantt Chart by MAQ and it does a lot of things OK, but not to the extent that I can use it properly. Thanks in advance!

Hi, @jcastr02 

You can add the 'assigned to' column to the 'legend' in the gantt, and then you can use different colors to distinguish them.

You should know that the Legend color will be different or can be changed only when the Duration field is specified. So you may need to fill the Duration field to show Legend color differently.

@v-janeyg-msft    I am currently using the visualazation "Gantt Chart by MAQ Software"  Which one are you using?  I noticed that the order of the fields menu is different than mine.  See below when I place the Assigned to in the legend name it still keeps the two projects for Hand, Kimberley on two different lines.  My intent to place hers on one line.   I also tried to remove the Project Title and Category out of the "category" but it's not allowing me to place the "title" field in the legend.  It gives me error "please select a field that is already present in "category"

Hi, @jcastr02 

You can turn on the 'hierarchy layout' button then custom format.
