Are you able to manually state what 'tier' members of staff should be. We have instances where different tiers/levels report into the same staff.

For example this picture I need Head of Development to be Tier 3 (not 2) even though the direct report is still into Tier 1. The child links of Head of Development should also be moved down to Tier 4 (not 3).

Thanks to all who have commented here! This is a great request and one we’ve seen consistently, so we will keep this high on our list of future considerations. Thanks again for taking the time to share context with us.

Has this feature been implemented? We also need the functionality to adjust employee tiers so they can report to tiers that are not adjacent.

This looks like it was raised years ago, how has this not been added?

Hi @trottler - at this time we don’t have an update to share, but this thread remains the best place to stay tuned to for an update!

3 years have passed since this issue was first raised by a customer, yet the issue still remains.

When do you expect these features to be added?

Cancelled subscription. Unacceptable to sit on such a basic feature request and not action it.

I agree this is badly needed and the feature doesn't really function without it. I’m not sure why a tier is stored if it cant be used. Even though we pay for licences from lucid, we have no choice but to use a different software for our org chart.

This is a must-have Feature for an Organization tool.
Do we have any news, when this will be a thing. This thread is open since 4 years.

Can someone from LucidChart ACTUALLY DO THIS.

I am now looking elsewhere as not implementing this feature for FIVE YEARS is ridiculous.

The feature is simple:  Move shpae to anywhere on the canvas but keep connection to designated supervisor.

 

It is SO frustrating to see this basic feature not be implemented.
