Gantt Chart Not able to see Parent Task detail

[frankiekho]

Hi, 

Since the tooltip of Gantt Chart is not customizable, i created a card visualization to see the detail og a task in gantt chart (Screenshot1)

but when i wanted to click on the parent (which is the long bar that contains all the smaller shorter bar) it only shows the first short bar within (screenshot 2)

is there a way to show the details of the parent task in the card visual like i've shown?

unfortunately, it requires license for my dashboard to show it online service. but thanks @Anonymous

Hi @frankiekho ,

I tested the Gantt chart you were using, and the error you mentioned might be caused by it not recognizing the parent node. This seems to be a limitation of your current visualization itself, and I would recommend that you use the xviz Gantt chart, which allows the user to configure the parent-child hierarchy as well as the customization of the parent node. In my test, when I clicked on the parent level, it worked fine.

Some links for your reference.

My test for your reference.

When I select child, card shows 2011and 2013.

When I select parent, card shows 2011 and 2022.
