With the new change, clicking on the action card row in Gantt will automatically open the action for you, but that's not always useful. When I’m in a Teams meeting, I would click on an item just so the blue bar would “highlight” it and the people in the meeting could see what activity we were discussing. Now it opens up automatically. Also, I click on an activity so I can see the item in the Gantt chart. If someone wants to open an activity card, they would click on the other spot instead of clicking on the title. One click either way. Not a time saver in my opinion.

Our team works in weeks, so would be helpful to have those indicators on the Gantt chart

We regularly have multiple dependent tasks that need to occur on the same day (e.g. coordinating final tasks as a deadline looms). But if we have Gantt auto-rescheduling turned on, then the dependent tasks do not respect the 0-days setting between the same-day tasks (instead each dependent task gets moved one day later than the previous one). This makes Gantt auto-scheduling feature dangerous for us to use since it could inadvertently alter the final project deadline milestone, etc.

Currently, if you have an action template set up that has dependencies between the steps, the lag in between those steps isn't "created" in the predecessor column in gantt. This means that if you apply the template, the steps are properly offset, but if you have auto-scheduling turned on, and shift the dates, the plan will schedule the dates as soon as possible, removing the lag that was placed by the action template.

Show and sort by priority in Gantt view allows users to work with it as a "to-to" list and visually see and prioritize tasks in that view.

Fixed/static WBS numbers will allow consistent identification of project actions. As actions move in a project, uses could be given an option to maintain the WBS number or to renumber the action. Actions could then be referenced by WBS, and action lists could be sorted by WBS.

We have created a % Complete formula custom field based on two other custom fields that users will manually input numbers into and want it to display in Gantt view. The other custom fields can be displayed in this view, but not the formula field, which is preventing full roll out of this field and this space for our users.

Currently in both Timeline and Gantt views, actions of more than one day's duration are truncated INside each action with one or two letters and an elipsis. In Timeline view, that means users must manually scroll over every action to discern its title. This can be confusing and does not support the "at a glance" purpose of Timeline or Gantt. Please consider showing action titles beside the action.

We plan our initiatives based on fiscal quarters from June-July. Right now the only ability you have is to view quarters by calendar year. I would like the ability to select the Month or Quarter header on the Gantt chart to customize how we see our quarters according to our fiscal calendar. I would expect this to apply anywhere else in my Hive environment.

As a user I want to be able to regress to a previous version of a project plan in gantt so i can reinstate against changes and compare versions.
