The Schedule Screen
Two views, two purposes. The Gantt shows schedule geometry. The Deviation View ranks where your baseline is eroding and why.
Gantt Chart
Float spectrum bar colours
Every bar is coloured by float remaining — not just a binary critical/non-critical flag:
The full legend is shown at the top right of the Gantt header.
Baseline bar overlay
When a baseline is selected, a thin grey bar appears directly below each forecast bar at the original baseline position. The visual gap between the two bars is the schedule slip at a glance — no numbers needed.
Signal badge
When signals have been detected against an activity (but haven't yet added up to visible schedule slip), a minimal ⚡+Nd badge appears at the end of the bar. Hover the bar to see the full breakdown in the tooltip.
Rich tooltip
Hovering any bar opens an instant (no delay) structured card showing:
- Activity name with risk-tinted header
- Forecast Start / Finish dates
- Baseline Finish date (when baseline selected)
- Float / Drift / Signal delay — three colour-coded metric tiles
- Progress bar (backed by
percentComplete)
Deviation View
The Deviation View is the default tab. It's not a schedule — it's a ranked prioritisation surface. The engine computes a composite deviation score for every activity and sorts by it automatically.
Composite Deviation Score
The Deviation column ranks activities by a composite heuristic blending four factors:
Activities scoring above 120 show CRITICAL, above 70 show HIGH, above 40 show MED.
Financial Exposure column
The Exposure column shows the locked financial exposure from accepted signals linked to each activity. Colour is relative to the current page — not fixed thresholds:
Impact Drivers expand row
Click any row to expand the Impact Drivers panel inline. It shows every accepted and pending signal that contributes to that activity's deviation:
Sorting & Filtering
Every column header is sortable. The default sort is Deviation Score (highest first) — the engine's best guess at what needs attention now.
Use the filter chips (Critical / At Risk / On Track) or the AI search bar to narrow to a subset. Switch between Text and AI mode to search by natural language intent.
