Any Charts Similar to this?
Hi, I am trying to create a multi project schedule but cant create a visual similar to what I want. This is an image of what I am trying to implement
As you can see each project is listed on the left side and the dates are listed above. The "Task" would have their actual tasks written in them. To add on to this the color of each task depends on the person working on the task. What kind of tool would you all reccomend for a task like this? I have tried using a gantt chart but the visual is too long in my opinion. The data I have includes the project name, task, start date, end date, first and last name of person performing activity and the percent complete.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Anonymous,
I haven't found a custom visual that is fully similar to your snapshot. Perhaps you can try to use the Gantt chart, it allows you to show your task on the date ranges.

In addition, if you are familiar with scripts, you can also try to use script-based visuals(e.g. R, Python) to manually plot these graphs.Create Power BI visuals using R - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Thanks for your reply! I used a Gannt Chart before but I do not like how there is a row for each task. This just makes the visual super long when it is expanded out.
Do you think it is possible to add padding to a clustered bar chart to make something like I want?

HI Anonymous,
I think it is hard to do these in a clustered bar chart. power bi visual includes the basic aggregation features to summary values based on group and categories.
So if you do not add additional categories, these values will be aggregated instead of split to standalone data bars.Regards,
