Goto to current date

[johnm]

Is there a way to set the Gantt chart to goto to the current date ?

Hello johnm,

There is no such method or property but you may use the ensureVisible method to go to a specific task if this would help.

Hi,

The ‘dateStart’ property determines the start date of the view.

Hi Markov,

For example:

• Task 1 : dateStart : Jan 1 2023
• Task 2 : dateStart: Jun 1 2023
• Task 3 : dateStart : Mar 1 2024

When we load above tasks, view will be showing Task 1 , but from user perspective we are expecting it will be showing current day to avoid scrolling. In this scneario, we are looking for Go to specific date. Since there is no such funcitonality we want to use ensureVisible as per documentation.

EnsureVisible :Makes sure a Task is visible by scrolling to it.

If we go with suggested approach then user will be always shown Task 1 which is not desired. Please suggest better way to handle the case.

Thanks,

Srinivas

Hi,

 

At the moment there isn’t a public method that allows scrolling by date. I have opened a work item about that and we will considering adding this in a future release.

For now, it can be implement with the workaround here – stackblitz

Thanks Ivan, we tried this and it is working when we switch from week to month but does not work post load process. We are looking into that and reach out if any questions related to Smart HTML
