# Use timeline or Gantt view

Gantt view displays your projects as bars on a horizontal timeline. Use it when you need to manage deadlines across multiple projects, adjust timelines on the fly, and spot scheduling conflicts before they become problems.

### Access and navigate Gantt view

{% hint style="info" %}
**When to use:** You want to see how your projects sit across a timeline and move between dates quickly.
{% endhint %}

1. Go to **Projects** in the left panel.
2. Click on the arrow button to expand the secondary sidebar.
3. Click the **All Projects & Tasks** on the secondary sidebar.
4. Click the **Gantt** tab. Projects appear as bars on a horizontal timeline.
5. Click **Jump to Date** to navigate quickly to a specific point on the timeline.
6. Click the **Filters** button at the top-right to narrow what you see.

**Expected outcome:** Your projects appear as horizontal bars on a timeline, showing their start and end dates at a glance.

### Adjust project timelines

{% hint style="info" %}
**When to use:** You need to move a project to new dates or change how long it runs.
{% endhint %}

1. Click and hold a project bar on the timeline, then drag it left or right to move it to a new date.
2. Drag the left or right edge of a bar to extend or shorten the project duration.

**Expected outcome:** Changes apply immediately, and your project bar will reflect the updated dates across the timeline.

### Filter and group the timeline or Gantt view

{% hint style="info" %}
**When to use:** You want to focus on a subset of projects or organize the timeline by a specific category.
{% endhint %}

1. Click the **Filters** button at the top-left of the Gantt view.
2. In the **Workspaces** dropdown, select the checkboxes next to the workspaces you want to see, or leave it set to **All**.
3. Under **Group by**, select a field to organize your timeline.
4. Click **+ Add** to add a second level of grouping.
5. Under **Sort**, select how you want projects ordered. Stacked projects cannot be sorted in the Gantt view.
6. Toggle **Show completed projects** on or off, depending on whether you want finished work visible.
7. Toggle **Show empty groups** on or off to control whether empty grouping categories appear.
8. Under **Task filters**, click **+ Add** to filter by task-level criteria.
9. Under **Project filters**, click **+ Add** to filter by project-level criteria.
10. Click **Save** and choose whether to update the current view or create a new view.

**Expected outcome:** Your timeline now shows only the projects that match your filters, organized the way you need.
