Filtering

You may not want to show all items in the gantt chart, and there are several ways to add filtering. These options are configured under Settings > Filtering.

Static filtering on a single field

To add a permanent (static) filter on a single field, select Field to filter and then select the value:

The gantt chart will then only display items matching this value.

Static filtering on a view

If you prefer to configure a more complex filter, such as using a combination of fields, "not", or "or" filters, you must configure a view on the list. You can then select the view under "Default view for data filtering":

To add to the available views, navigate to your list, modify your filters as appropriate by clicking on columns and selecting "Filter by":

Then select the relevant values and click Apply:

Save your new view by clicking Save view as:

This will now appear as an options in your Gantt configuration:

When saved, the chart will now only show items from this view.

Dynamic filtering using multiple views

To give your users the option to select a view, you can create as many views as you wish and select them under "End-user selectable views":

These will now appear as a drop-down in the chart:

Dynamic filtering using fields

You can give your users the option to filter on any number of fields. To do this, select the fields under "End-user filterable fields":

These fields will now appear as a drop-down in the chart:

The 'Load ancestors on filtering' option, if selected, will mean that for any matching tasks, their parent tasks/projects will also be shown.
