Good suggestion, Mohamed; in fact i have tried TiddlyMap -a good solution for discovering how ideas connect...
But i'm trying to solve for the particular use-case of understanding how different track of a project play out over calendar time. In this problem space, i think Mr. Gantt pretty much nailed ~100 years ago, and (kinda like the modern "safety" bicycle, invented around the same time) that design remains essentially the same. So: with such stable & well-understood requirements, should be easy enough implement, right? Here's hoping it is on sombody's development road-map :-) /walt On Tuesday, June 1, 2021 at 5:17:13 PM UTC+1 mohamed...@hotmail.com wrote: > nm second thought > > have you tired tiddly map ?http://tiddlymap.org/ > > it can provide visual presentation for dependencies between different > tiddlers , not exactly a gantt chart ,but its still pretty neat! > > On Monday, May 31, 2021 at 8:44:21 PM UTC+2 paulgilbert2000 wrote: > >> Hi Walt, >> >> i know , and i guess you will have to live with the red warning , that >> unless you put some place holder dummy data in the start and end date >> fields for all other tiddlers .. and yes 100% , the gnatt chart plugin you >> mentioned is far superior, i wish i had the knowledge to integrate it with >> tidly wiki :) >> >> who knows, maybe its on somebodys road map somewhere :) >> >> >> >> >> On Monday, May 31, 2021 at 1:22:36 PM UTC+2 ludwa6 wrote: >> >>> Thanks @mohamed for the good explainer; given that help, i got it >>> working now as was probably intended -except maybe for one thing: >>> That red error icon is now when clicked returning me a list of ALL >>> tiddlers that don't include both a start date and an end date, which >>> renders this plugin suitable only for a site wherein you want every tiddler >>> to have a corresponding plot on the Gantt chart.
