Visualize Date gaps and dates overlapping
A part can have one successor or multiples successors. A part can also have one predecessor or multiple predecessor
The problem we have we want to quickly be able to view which part has which successors and show if there are gaps or overlaps in the date range
The columns Start and Drop are keys which identify the sequence: the predecessor drop key is the same as the sucessor start key
The important part ist to quickly understand
- what is wrong with the
fromandtilldates or - if
StartandDropdo not match (not the case in the exmaple)
What have i done?
I looked at
- Interface design for managing overlapping date periods
- Assigning working hours on a duty roster
- What are the best interfaces you've seen for editing date-chained sequences?
but none did match my visualization needs.
Questions
- What would you change to improve visibillity / glancabillity?
- Would reducing contrast all none relevant text help?
