switching resources/timeline from horizontal to vertical

Hi
is there a possibility to switch the appearance of the resources in schedule and grid on the left site and the timeline on top ?
We have many resources but a small timeline. So it would be better to have the resources on the left and the timeline as "header"
Is there a place in unload or wherever to change this ?
best regards
Juergen

Hi Juergen. I might be misunderstanding your question so feel free to clarify. But the Schedule and Grid views are essentially opposites of each other. The Schedule view shows resources on the X axis (horizontal) and time on the Y axis (vertical). That orientation is reversed on the Grid view. You can increase the number of columns on either view, though that can be tedious since there is a large number of objects layered on top of each other in a specific order in the portal. And FileMaker isn't very forgiving if you nudge something even one pixel outside the boundaries of its enclosing object (portal, tab panel, etc.) HTH... Jeff

Is there something about the Grid view that doesn't work for you?

Go to the "Filters" side panel and change the "time scale increment" to "hour".
