I would like to add some color coding to the timeline but do not see an option in the timeline builder to do it.  Is there a way?

We have a master Gantt chart prepopulated with tasks for the entire project.  I have a task status as Future, In Progress, Complete.  I want the future tasks to be gray in font color so they are present but not in your phase.  Anything overdue I want to color code as red.  

If I cant do this I might need to switch to a table report, but I would prefer a Gantt chart.  Just helps visualize the impact of future tasks with delays for my team.

    Hi Ivan, I haven't found a way to change the color of the font or the bars in a Timeline report. On my Task Timeline report, I used a Status Icon field to show a visual indication of the status of the Task. My Status Icon field is called S (so it takes up very little column space) and is a Rich Text field that displays a 16x16 image based on the Status and the due date. I'll post the code and a screenshot in a bit.
