How to create calendars which show only start and end date?

Hi Jessica Lanchimba, welcome to the Community! Thank you for creating this post. I'm afraid that I'm not sure I fully understand your case. May I ask you to elaborate a bit on what you're aiming to achieve?

In Calendars or Calendar view, tasks are represented by bars spanning the dates from their start to due date. Would you like to see tasks represented by, for example, a bar appearing on the start date and another on the due date?

Looking forward to your reply!

I'm hoping to get a calendar view that doesn't show bars spanning from due date to start date. I would like a view with the option to only show a bar on the start date and due date. The reason is I have several tasks spanning the same duration, so the calendar gets very clunky seeing several bars across dates. It would look cleaner if I can only show when a task starts and when it is due.

Hi Megan Brown,

in calendar view you can only see task in this way

To obtain something like you want you'll need to have 2 milestones for each task, one aligned with start date and one with end date.

But I think it's too much complex to manage

Has this ever been looked at? Good few years on now and still no function for start and end date as blocks rather than full lines

Hi Jason Norton 🙋🏻‍♀️

I have forwarded your input to our product team. At this time, I don't have any updates to share, but we will let you know if there is any progress. As suggested by Pietro Poli above, a current workaround is to create two separate tasks for the start and end dates. Thank you!
