Is there a functionality that provides overview of the whole gantt to separate html element?
Basically it means that for example, beside the main gantt, there will be a possibility to display minimized version of gantt in a separate DIV, e.g. in a canvas or as an image.

If there is no such feature, is there a plan to implement one or do you know how to export the gantt to some sort of an image and display it in a different div instantly?

Also most likely the preview would be displayed without grid as the font would be too small to read

Best regards

Hi allwd, does gantt.element is that you are looking for?

All the best,

Hi Alex,
gantt.element is just a reference to html element in which Gantt is being rendered. My goal is to have a small preview displayed in a separate html element

Some examples:

The last one is the simplest and most expected behavior. In our case there is actually no need to have any control over actual gantt through the overview, but it would be useful.

Best regards

Please, check our Timeline component: https://bryntum.com/docs/gantt/#SchedulerPro/widget/Timeline
And example here: https://bryntum.com/examples/gantt/timeline/
Is it what you need?

All best,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the response. The timeline widget differs quite a lot from what is visible on gantt's scheduler, but maybe it will provide some way to achieve the overview feature. If there is no other feature that could be of help here, I will look into the timeline topic and see if with some adjustments the overview will be achievable
