New features
- Category
- New “General Bar” Formatting Card — settings like Transparency (%) and Round corners moved here, plus a new “Transparency Overlapping (%)” setting.
- Overlapping Bars Detection — overlapping bars within a Category are now detected and rendered with increased transparency; a dismissible notification appears when overlaps occur.
- Split Active Bars — a new “Split” option divides active bars into past/future segments with different formatting.
- Default Category Name — define a fallback name shown on the Y-axis and in tooltips when data is empty.
- Gridlines
- Horizontal Gridlines added, configurable independently for Parent category and Category levels, each with its own style.
Changed features
- Parent Category & Category — tooltips now show a user-friendly display name instead of a technical name; line width settings switched from dropdowns to numeric selectors; default line color for Category is now grey for contrast.
- Current Timestamp — line color option is disabled when width is 0.
- Landing Page — documentation link updated to the new documentation site.
- Language Support — added regional formats: arn-CL, da-DK, de-AT, ms-MY, quz-PE, th-TH, th-ZA, tr-TR, vi-VN, plus fallback language support (e.g. de-CH falls back to de) for ar, de, es, fr, it, nl, pt, sv, zh.
Fixed bugs
- Category / Parent category — duration values were sometimes cut off by the scroll bar; fixed missing scrollbar width in layout calculations.
- Fixed an issue where the first category under each parent was only partially visible with “Collapse All” enabled.
- Current timestamp — fixed the label running out of bounds when positioned far right on the axis.
- Resolved the visual freezing when resized to a very narrow width.
- Fixed a layout bug where the scroll bar was slightly cut off on the right edge.
- Fixed a bug preventing correct loading when pinned to a dashboard.
