Option to Show Tasks Only on Start and Due Dates (Not Every Day in Between)
S
Shae Baily
I’d like to request an enhancement to how tasks with a Start Date and Due Date are displayed in Calendar and timeline views.
Current behavior:
When both a start date and due date are assigned, the task appears on every day between those dates.
Challenge:
For many workflows (planning, marketing campaigns, training schedules, and milestones), tasks are not actively worked on every day in that range. This behavior:
Creates visual clutter in Calendar views
Makes it harder to distinguish true daily work from milestone-based tasks
Reduces clarity when managing multiple long-range tasks
Requested improvement:
Add an optional setting to control how tasks display when both a start date and due date are set, such as:
Show task only on the start date
Show task only on the due date
Show task on both start and due dates
(Current behavior) show task on all days in between
This could be implemented as:
A per-task toggle
A per-view setting
Or a workspace-level preference
Value:
This would significantly improve usability for teams managing:
Marketing campaigns
Training programs
Project milestones
Long-term planning without daily execution
