Better scaling for printed Gantt charts
When printing larger project plans, Gantt charts can become too compressed and difficult to read. Better scaling and layout options would be useful, especially when printed plans need to be shared with colleagues or stakeholders.

Finding overdue tasks across multiple projects in GanttPRO?
Since I'm managing several projects in GanttPRO, I need to quickly identify overdue tasks across all of them. I review our project schedules to see which deadlines have been missed and who is responsible for the outstanding work. Opening each project separately takes quite a bit of time, especially when several teams are involved. I'd like to to view all overdue tasks in one place, ideally with the project name, assignee, and due date. It would also be useful to filter the list by project or team member. Thanks in advance!

Task approval workflow in GanttPRO before marking tasks as completed
We recently noticed one area that would upgrade out GanttPRO experience a lot – task approval workflow. Our team prepares technical drawings that need to be checked by a senior engineer before the next stage of the project can begin. The designer may finish their part, but the task shouldn't be considered fully completed until the drawings are approved. We currently use comments and task statuses but we'd like to see this special type of workflow as certain stages require a manager's review before being marked as completed. Is it possible to integrate?

Email and push notifications for resource overload in GanttPRO
When a team member's workload exceeds their available hours, we'd like to be notified – whether by push notifications or email. Why this is important for us: we have a designer working on 2 client projects at a time, and when one urgent task is aded or the deadline changes, he might have more work scheduled that he can handle. I'd like to spot those conflicts in the workload view without manual checking because sometimes it is very easy to miss such changes. So a notification or an email would solve this issue, preferably with data like how much the person is overloaded. This woild really help us redistribute tasks before the overload starts affecting deadlines.

Grouping tasks by different custom fields in GanttPRO Board and List views
We'd like to group tasks by custom fields that differ in GanttPRO's Board and List views, without having to switch between different grouping options. For instance, group by client first, then by work type within each client group. For the context why it's an important gap: our studio runs projects for several clients and each varies in type of work and departments involved greatly. Currently, grouping tasks by a single field helps, but our team would like to organize them by two criteria at once.

Sharing GanttPRO Workload with stakeholders through a read-only link
We often review resource allocation with non GanttPRO users and sharing our team's workload across projects in GanttPRO via a read-only link would be a very useful feature. Now we use export Workload data to Excel but sharing a live view would be more preferable. It would also be useful to choose which resources and date ranges are visible in the shared view. Could a shareable Workload link be considered for a future update?

Dependencies between tasks in different GanttPRO projects
I'm managing several related projects in GanttPRO and it would be great to create dependencies between tasks that belong to different projects. For instance, when one project is on the design phase, and the other – implementation, some implementation tasks cannot start until milestones from design are completed. What we'd like to see is linking these tasks across projects and having its dates adjust automatically when the preceding tasks are delayed. Could cross-project task dependencies be added to GanttPRO? Maybe within the Portfolio view?

Adding delays or overlaps between dependent tasks in GanttPRO
Hello! I'm working on an office renovation project in which some tasks require a waiting period before the next one can begin. Often, for example, we need to allow time for materials to dry before moving on to the next construction stage. In a different scenario, as some activities can run in parallel, the next task should start before the previous one is fully completed. How can I add delays or overlaps between dependent tasks in GanttPRO without breaking the existing dependencies? Will these adjustments still work with Auto Scheduling enabled? Thanks!
