Gantt charts and Dashboards

嗨。新来的佛rum; recently created a Smartsheet Gantt chart and subsequently integrated it into a Smartsheet Dashboard.
Looks great except --- I seem to have lost my indentation of my subtasks under a parent task, and that makes reading the results a lot more difficult.
The other thing that I'd love to do is to be able to have task bars in the Gantt chart show partial color in the dashboard if they aren't 100% complete. I don't imagine there's much hope for that right now.
The dashboard could use a lot more enhancing for customizing the look, but it does work and I'm relatively happy with it.
Indentation is an issue. Anyone know how to fix this?
thanks

Hi,
Are you using a report widget in the Dashboard? There is a way to see the hierarchy in a report. Another option would be to use the web content widget and paste the published sheet link.
Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help.
Regarding the Gantt taskbar. It's possible already.

Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic day!
Best,

Hi Andree
Thanks for writing back. I created a Gantt chart (sample attached), then created a report from that (attached), then embedded that into a Dashboard (attached). As you can see, I lost the indentation of the task name somewhere along the line.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dennis

Happy to help!
That's by design!
It's the way the reports work. It can't show the indentation because it can show multiple rows from different sections of a sheet or multiple sheets.
You could either use the report and include another column to show the hierarchy structure (Level 1, Level2 and so on)
Another option could be to use the web widget function and embed the sheet instead and then the indentation would work just as in the sheet.
将这些选项的工作吗?

Interim solution:
Create new field "Task Level"
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 6)), IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 5)), IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 4)), IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 3)), IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 2)), IF(ISERROR(INDEX(ANCESTORS((电子邮件保护)), 1)), 1, 2), 3), 4), 5), 6), 7)
Create new field "Project Tasks"
=IF([Task Level]@row = 1, MID((电子邮件保护), 6, LEN((电子邮件保护)) - 5), IF([Task Level]@row = 2, "► " +(电子邮件保护), IF([Task Level]@row = 3, "→ " + Ta(电子邮件保护), IF([Task Level]@row = 4, "―→ " +(电子邮件保护), IF([Task Level]@row = 5, "――→ " +(电子邮件保护), IF([Task Level]@row = 6, "―――→ " +(电子邮件保护), "――――→ " +(电子邮件保护)))))))
Notes:
Since Smartsheet reduces serial blanks to just one blank, a filler must be used. In this case, I used"―"
If your project has more than seven levels add to the formula.

Marino,can you please provide more detail on how you used these formulas? I am trying to replicate and am not successful.
