Hi Jacob,

I played around with the timeline in Lucid Spark and wasn’t able to get it to do what you want.  I tried to cut/delete the column, but it doesn’t do anything.  Also grouping two timelines together didn’t work either.  When adding a card to a timeline, it only allows you to enter one date range as well. So ultimately the best solution would be to drag it over the weekend or create a second task on the Monday with the same task number/ID/Title. 

I see two possible product enhancement requests to the Lucid dev team that would work here:

1. On the ‘Flag’ button, add an additional option to hide weekends.  Currently you can ‘remove highlight’ but that isn’t sufficient. 
2. When you double click to add a card, allow cards to have multiple dates that do not overlap. Using Jacob’s example, I could set the date of the card to 2/6 - 2/7; then in an additional date field, I could set the date to 2/10-2/10. While this solution would “work” for Jacob, it would not be ideal.  That being said, it would be very useful on a timeline when tracking a dependency that happens in the middle of the card to represent no work being done on it.  For example, my Card to create private domain may include submitting a ticket to infrastructure, waiting for them to execute on my ticket, then finishing my card once they’ve provisioned it.

I see a lot of potential in the timeline but it’s pretty limiting in its use cases at the moment. 

Hi ​@Jacob J thanks for your post and thank you ​@Grieser for your response and feedback!

Indeed, unfortunately this isn’t currently supported in Lucid, but we’re committed to continually improving our products. If you’re willing to share, we’d love to hear more details about your use case or what you’d like to see in this experience within this thread. I’ve also converted this post to an idea so that it’s visible to others within the Product Feedback section of the community - from here, they can upvote it and add details of their own.

Finally, for more information on how Lucid manages feedback via this community, take a look at this post.

Cheers!
