Adding new capabilities to timeline view in Google Sheets

What’s changing

Last year, we introduced an interactive timeline view that allows you to track projects in Google Sheets. The timeline view enables you to easily interact with project information and can help you manage things like marketing campaigns, project milestones, schedules, cross-team collaboration, and more. 

Today, we’re adding the following capabilities to expand the timeline view feature: 
  • Enhanced formatting options, including card text truncation and the undo/redo option 
  • A card collapsed view that enables you to merge cards into a single row for each card group 
  • Print and download support 

Getting started 

  • Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. 
  • End users: To create a timeline, navigate to Insert > timeline > select a data range > configure the attributes in the timeline settings sidebar. Visit the Help Center to learn more about Timeline View
