Is it possible to filter the timeline view by sections? Our projects have multiple sections, and I would like to be able to filter the timeline view down to only specific sections. ---

I’d like to find a way to only see tasks from a particular section within a calendar view (rather than from all the sections within the project). Is this possible? ---

Having the ability to group sections within the timeline view will certainly help organise timelines when used as Product Roadmaps. Currently, I have a timeline with over 10 swimlanes and will be great to group them with according tot the user group the products/features represent such as Consumer Product, Community Product etc. ---

Hi guys, I’d love to be able to filter in the timeline view. I’ve found this thread, any updates on when this feature will be made available? ---

Hi there, any updates on when this will be available? It seems very critical to make this work as a search filter in timeline view. ---

Would love this. Without this feature, I am being forced to break out each section to its individual project. And sending into a Portfolio. ---

Wow, it feels silly that this is not an option… now I need to rethink my organization hierarchy… or I guess I can create a redundant custom field and an automation that sets that custom field based on what section it’s in, so then I can filter using that… But that’s a tedious workaround for a should-be no-brainer feature ---

Hi, this would be an extremely useful filter for sharing timelines with clients. We don’t need them to see every single task on projects so a way to filter by section or custom field would be great. Any updates planned for this?? ---

Upvoting and replying to prioritize development planning. I want to show the high-level project timeline to my team, not the individual tasks, some of which are sensitive to the team. Right now, I’m going to have to create a separate project just to map a high level timeline. This is a significant amount of redundant work and coordination. ---

I need to be able to show a filtered list of milestones in a roadmap view to our executive team. Rigwithout filters the roadmap view is too noisy and not useful ---
