With Timelines and Gantt Charts in LucidChart, is there a way to change the time line intervals at the top of the chart from an actual date to a week number (Week 1, Week 2, etc) to show a generic timeline?
Hi
Finally, for more information on how Lucid manages feedback via this community, take a look at this post:
However, I do have a workaround to suggest in the meantime, which is using a Dynamic Table. Ordinarily, these tables are used for arranging objects via the attributes of your choice - for example, a tag or emoji that’s added to them. However, you can customize the labels to represent weeks (or your time block of choice). In my example below, I’ve added these as well as teams.
From there, you can add cards, just as you would to a timeline, to plan your work.
I have a similar request, but it is slightly different.
Rather than using generic week numbers which are not connected to a fixed date, I’d like the option to show the data ranges using an ISO week number, much like Outlook and other calendar applications do. For example, in 2024 the week of January 7-13 is “week 2”, while May 26-June 1 is “week 22”, Dec 22-28 is “week 52” and so on.
Thus, this is still using absolute dates on the timeline, but with the option of changing the format of the date displayed on the top of the timeline when using the “Weeks” view.
(Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this request, but I couldn’t find the related post in the Ideas/Product Feedback page.)
