Add more elements to Work Breakdown Structure

Hi Bill

Can you post a screenshot of what you are trying to do? 

Anyone have any suggestions?   Or does Lucidchart not auto create more items?   i.e. they need to be manually created?

I had the same question, Bill!  Tried copy-paste Sub-Task and the “smart” auto-cleanup function, which aligned the subtask right underneath a parent task.

Under board settings, grid settings, they do have options for snap-to and line guides, which does make it easier to copy-paste additional boxes and still look uniform ...

Hi ​@res927 thanks for your post! 

In order to quick-add a line and shape from an object you should be able to do so by clicking on the round blue nod that appears when hovering over the shape, which then shows the previewed line and shape. When a shape is already present in that direction, a new branch will be created.

You can find more information on lines in our Help Center article.

I have the same problem and I am doing it so manually inserting line until my diagram looks very untidy.  Also I was able to insert one date on the task bars but others are not reflecting the dates despite trying multiple times using the same process

Hey ​@bkgithinji thanks for chiming in! I am sorry about that!

To help me better understand the issue you are experiencing, would you mind providing screenshot(s) and a detailed description of the steps taken that led to the issue? Thank you!
