# Concept: Views

### Why Gantt Charts in Motion?

Gantt charts in Motion tie projects together, giving you a comprehensive view. They allow you to see how different tasks and projects interconnect over time, making it easier to manage resources, track progress, and adjust timelines as needed. With Motion's Gantt charts, you can visualize your entire workflow, identify potential bottlenecks, and ensure your team stays on track.

### Editing and Managing Projects

You can edit a project by directly clicking on the project bar within the Gantt chart view.

This opens the project modal, where you can update project descriptions and task lists on the right-hand side.

* **Dragging Projects:** Change the due dates or timeframe of a project by dragging the project block from left to right.

### Here's why the Kanban view is so valuable:

**Simplified Workload Management:**

* **Example**: As a manager, group tasks by the assignee to monitor each team member's workload visually.
* Avoid time-consuming check-ins and easily understand task distribution.

**Instant Focus on Critical Tasks:**

* **Example**: As an employee, group tasks by priority and save a view for 'ASAP' tasks.
* Quickly access your most urgent tasks without searching through emails or sticky notes.

The "*Save as View*" feature is your personal assistant for creating customized views that meet your specific needs. It's designed to make your work easier, increase efficiency, and streamline task management.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.usemotion.com/help/project-management/views/concept-views.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
