The Gantt Visual should allow greater granularity i.e. include time: Hours, Minutes, Seconds. This should be part of the axis and duration.

An alternative to "Completion" could be an 'actual' input i.e. [Actual Started] and [Actual Ended]. This will show Planned v Actual in a Gantt.

RE: Gantt by Time and Planned v Actual

For Project Planning Actual Start and End Dates or Reference Baseline for each Task Milestone is required. Ability to have multiple level nesting.

Definitely needed for granularity. I have data that is on a 24-hour basis with changing statuses and can't find anything to properly display it.

RE: Gantt by Time and Planned v Actual

I'm not holding my breath. There are countless requests like this one for visualizing milestones (NOT date ranges) in swim lanes. Yes, there are custom visuals but they only support Start and End dates and they show a time range. We need to mark single dates such a registration date, abstract due dates, etc. and have the ability to add more than 2.

But MS doesn't care. They completely ignore those who might need to chart dates as they pertain to say, clinical trials and a GLOBAL PANDEMIC!

You can chart anything you want in Power BI as long as it financials and just numbers.

RE: Gantt by Time and Planned v Actual

'An out of the box gantt chart is one of the visuals I want most. Every time I try to create a Gantt chart in Power BI I get extremely frustrated. Some features I think it needs:
- Abiltiy to nest tasks under a parent task to multiple levels
- Ability to have multiple records displayed on the same line based on a name column for example. This would should multiple date/time bands on a single row
- Ability to control the color based on conditional formatting, or a value from another field (column or measure)
- Ability to control the zoom level more than just by second, minute, hour, day, week, month, etc. I would like to have zoom in and out capabilities like you do a map

There is a new gantt chart available with the ability to track actual and planned values - https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA200000891?tab=Overview
