WBS

WBS hierarchy that reads like a schedule

Multi-level task groups, roll-up rows, indentation, expand/collapse, and left-side columns keep project structure visible.

GNT

A timeline built for real schedules

Compact project timelines with phase bands, year, quarter, and month headers, milestones, task labels, and configurable grid lines.

CP

Critical path and dependencies

Highlight critical tasks and show predecessor connector lines so readers understand sequence, risk, and schedule pressure.

%

Progress that matches project controls

Inline progress bars in the table and task bars show completion without hiding task names or timeline context.

FMT

Report-author formatting

Column widths, timeline grain, fonts, colors, progress behavior, and row density can be tuned from Power BI formatting.

PBI

Power BI native behavior

Uses Power BI theme colors, high contrast mode, selection, tooltips, localization resources, and AppSource-ready metadata.

Report author control

Format the visual to match the reporting audience.

Dynamic timeline grain

Start with years, quarters, months, or days by default, then use timeline zoom/pan behavior to focus on the relevant schedule window.

Configurable vertical grid lines

Show year, quarter, month, or day separators so the visual can match executive summaries or detailed planning reviews.

Column-specific sizing

Report authors can tune activity, start, end, days, and progress widths while protecting the Gantt area from being squeezed out.

Inline progress cells

Progress appears as a bar inside the progress column, keeping percentages readable without overlapping scrollbars or row content.

Theme and high contrast support

The visual follows Power BI report themes and high contrast mode, so existing palettes and accessibility settings are respected.

Localization-ready strings

Format pane labels and product text use string resources, so more languages can be added in future releases.
