Customise the Gantt Chart layout to fit within a page or section
1
Review the default layout
By default, your Gantt Chart may not be optimised for viewing the full project timeline.
If the chart feels cramped, adjust the container and page layout to give it more space.
2
Open the container options
Right-click on your Gantt Chart and navigate to Container → Container Settings.
This lets you adjust the container that holds the Gantt Chart block.
3
Expand to page edge
In the Container Settings panel, enable Expand to page edge.
This stretches the container to the page edges and removes empty side space.
4
Review the expanded chart
Once the toggle is turned on, the Gantt Chart will automatically stretch to the edge of the page.
This gives the timeline more room to display clearly.
5
Consider landscape orientation
If you want a more detailed view of the Gantt Chart timeline, switch the page to landscape orientation.
Landscape mode gives the chart more horizontal space.
6
Open the page menu
To change the page orientation, right-click anywhere within the page.
This opens the contextual page menu.
7
Switch to Landscape
From the contextual menu, select Page Options.
Then choose Switch Orientation to Landscape.
8
Review the landscape layout
Your Gantt Chart is now expanded in a landscape view.
This gives you a wider and clearer timeline display.
