Hi! With all of the Gantt updates, it would be nice if we could export the views to use in presentations. Additionally, to be able to filter the Gantt by Classification Type would make it easier for our users to compare similar projects and their timelines (instead of having to create a bunch of Shared Teams).

  Hi Alyssa,

  Thank you for sharing your feedback in the community.
  Regarding filtering the chart, do you think you can utilize the Project filters button? It appears next to the 'Features' button at the top of the Gantt chart.

  If you view the schedule from a higher level in the hierarchy where the Gantt shows all of the child projects, then use the filter options to choose which projects you want to view on the Gantt. 

  If that is not a suitable solution, can you tell us more about your process, what is the situation that you want to solve, and describe the outcome that you want to see? Also, if you could provide some examples that'd help our team understand the problem they need to solve.

  Hi Nisha! I didn't realize that you responded, my apologies for the 4 month delay.  The Project Filter could work for some organizations but it is limited to the top level Initiative. We have workstreams or sub-projects that may align across one another and be useful to compare in a specific saved view. For example, if you have a Shared Team for all major  projects for installing new equipment and then want a view to Filter out the Procurement activities across those projects so that that organization can review their specific responsibilities and check if they are on track. I tried with Filtering on the Name column within Gantt but it is limited since you either get all the lineage with it or need to require strict naming conventions. The other aspect is exporting which isn't as important but always nice to be able to export a nice looking Gantt into a PowerPoint. As of now, the only options are screenshots or SSRS reports which don't look as nice as the Gantt within Amplify. Hope this helps explain!
