Timeline settings
Asked by Alexander Kirilin:

Hello!

Can I highlight a task on timelines somehow?

May be by LABEL, COMMENT or COLOR? Anything? Like picture 1

Or something else? Like on BigGant for instance (picture 2)

The Jira Timelines/Roadmaps may be a bit limited when you want to customize events' layout. That's why we have built [Time Squad](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1223588/time-squad-roadmap-and-timelines-for-jira), a very flexible Timeline showing Jira issues and custom events:

Happy to discuss if you need more info about it.

Cheers,

David

Do you plan on making your add-on compatible with Jira Work Management, too?


author: Alexander Kirilin
body: [@David Berclaz](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1155018) We have projects in Jira Work Management and Jira Software also.

Sure, it is already compatible with Jira Work Management. I have just created a new project based on the Recruitment template and here is what I get:

Sure, [Time Squad](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1223588/time-squad-roadmap-and-timelines-for-jira) is compatible with all kind of Jira Projects: Software, Service Management, Work Management, etc.

You should give it a try and let me know if you are missing something, we're going to deliver a lot of new exciting features in the coming months.

Cheers,

body: Dear [@David Berclaz](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1155018) does it support all type of issues?

Epics, Task, Sub-task?


author: David Berclaz
body: [@Alexander Kirilin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4593898) absolutely, all issue types, standard and custom. I was not sure for the sub-tasks, I had to test, and it works like a charm using JQL for the Events Source:

body: You could make a bulk change for all selected tasks "change issue color --\> purple". Your would only select the issues that are crititical.

Apparently you cannot choose any other color than purple via bulk change.

Using the filters in the issue list could help help you \*identifying whats critical\*. You can also safe your filter setting.

**1. Step: build an issue list that identifies your critical issues**

**2. make bulk change**

OR: you change the issue colora for all critical issues manually

Looking into it you can control the bar color: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiraportfolioserver/coloring-issues-on-your-timeline-968677318.html>

However, not the task itself. I can't even find any feature requests to share either.

Hope this helps!

Best,
