    powerbitv, another trick: create 5+1 measures, where 5 measures is for length of every possible release and the first one - for length between start of the year and begin of first release every Program. And the color for this extra bar is white (or another relevant background color).

    So create you own individual "Gantt" diagram.

Hi powerbitv

 

I'm not sure, that such custom visualisation exist (Gantt it's not that you really need).

But I believe, that your request can be realised with basic Stacker bar/column chart. Whats you need is some additional calculations with measures and/or calculated columns.
I will be recommended you to convert all your dates to values (for example to length of days) and normalize it to year (or max work duration).


Best regards
