Limitations
Please note the following limitations of this feature:
The Sub Gantt Chart is displayed as read-only within the Main Gantt Chart. Editing actions such as schedule changes, adding dependencies, and linking Jira issues are not allowed.
If the Sub Gantt Chart contains tasks linked to Jira issues, the synchronization with Jira issue data will still occur in the Main Gantt Chart. However, the Jira sync settings from the Main Gantt Chart will be applied.
Resources from the Sub Gantt Chart can be displayed in the Main Gantt Chart's resource view. While Confluence users from both charts will be merged, custom resources with the same name will not be merged and will be treated as separate resources.
Timeline markers from the Sub Gantt Chart will not be displayed in the Main Gantt Chart.
