VERY exited to see the team working on getting us an actual Gantt view!!!

I would love for our teams to be able to use this as default, since it is best of both worlds with a list view and timeline. But unfortunately when I go to create a template, the only options for default view are List, Board, Timeline, and Calendar.

So it would be great to have Gantt be one of these default views.

@Bob_Le_Schoenthal,

I voted here. You may also want to vote here (as I did earlier):

> [@Saved view tabs to be supported in Project templates](https://forum.asana.com/t/saved-view-tabs-to-be-supported-in-project-templates/619618):
>
> [Saved view tabs](https://forum.asana.com/t/surface-the-most-relevant-information-by-saving-views-for-you-and-your-team/489251) are awesome. But, currently, they cannot be setup within a project template so that they are predefined for a project that is created based on that project template. Currently, you need to set up view tabs manually each time, or as a workaround, duplicate a regular project, which unfortunately loses out on all the functionality of Project templates. Please add support for saved view tabs in Project templates pray PS: this would require Filter, Sort and Hide buttons available…

If you would like me to merge this topic into the one above, I can do that and the votes will carry over. But your request is much simpler, so it’s fine to leave standalone as you’ve created it.

Thanks,

Larry
