Gantt Chart + Start/Finish Columns
I have a need to combine the detail of the start/finish date from the grid view with the visualization of the Gantt chart view. Is this possible?

Tim Meeks ✭✭✭✭✭✭Emily,
The Start/finish date should stay when you are in the Gantt view. There should be a slider bar that splits the screen for you to show both.

Do you mean to just view on the screen or print?

Hi Tim,
I'm more focused on print, or converting to PDF to share with a client. I can definitely see it on screen well.
Thanks,
Emily

Travis EmployeeEmily, any column can be used as the display label for your Gantt chart. Add a new Text/Number column to your sheet with a formula that concatenates the Start and End dates. Then use that new column as the display label (set through Project Settings).
Here's an example:
=[Start Date]1 + " - " + [End Date]1
Would result in:
03/01/16——03/14/16

Not sure that will do it. I've taken a screenshot of the view that I am hoping to achieve.

Emily, are you saying you want your PDF to look just like the provided screenshot?
While in the Export to PDF settings menu, select the columns you want to include (Task Name, Duration, Start, and Finish), select Portrait for orientation, and Fit to Width for Scaling.
This will print the file just as you have it in the screenshot. Here's an example of the PDF I exported with the same settings:

Yes! Brilliant! Thank you so much!
