Hi  @rejiba2004 ,

 

Based on my research, there is no option to customize legend transparency in Gantt Chart, Gantt Chart is a custom visual, and we encourage you to provide feedback to the developer of this custom visualization if you think that the option to customize legend transparency should be present in a future version. You can find contact details in the image below.

The sentence you mentioned, “not able to sort by the Parent column,” does it refer to the red mark in the image below?

Power BI’s default sorting method is alphabetical, so you need to create an index table using Enter Data, and then use the fields from that index table.

Enter data:
