Article: Graphical views in the Home>Projects tab
The Projects tab includes three graph options. Simply select the graph type you want to view. You can also click to hide the graphs, giving you a larger window in which to see the relevant information in the data cells.
Timeline Chart
This is your default view. The Timeline view provides a graphical overview of all projects in a bar graph. Darkened portions indicate the % Complete. Mouse-over the diamond graphic to see the name of the Milestone that the graphic represents.
Note: When in the Timeline view, simply click once on the chart adjacent to the row on which the Project is listed and the graph will automatically move to focus on that project. (This feature also works on the Gantt chart within an individual Project.)


Status*
This 0%-100% graph indicates the progress on each project. The bars are color-coded:
- White - Indicates a project that has not started
- Gray - Indicates completed tasks
- Red - Indicates lat tasks
- Green - Indicates tasks that are completed ahead of schedule
Place your mouse over the red or green bars and the % behind or ahead of schedule will be shown.


Burn-Down Chart
This view provides a more "agile" view of projects. Select one or more project checkboxes and then click the Burn-down button to view the details in a burn-down graph.
Changing the Time Scale:
You can click on the +/- icons to zoom in or out on the Timeline and Burn-Down graphs. Alternatively, you can use your mouse scroll-wheel or trackpad to zoom in and out.
