Navigating the timeline
Zoom in/out: Use pinch zoom on the timeline. As you zoom in, the time scale shifts from years → quarters → months.
PI overlay columns: Coloured columns represent Planning Intervals from Nooga Scale. They remain labelled (e.g. 2026 Q2) even as you zoom useful for comparing portfolio plans with Scale team plans.
Click an Enterprise OKR: Highlights the connected Portfolio OKRs and Epics, letting you trace the full value chain from strategy to delivery.
Click an Epic: When zoomed in, shows Features, the ART responsible, and linked team data from Scale.
Note: Initially the OKR columns will appear empty. You must create Enterprise OKRs, Portfolio OKRs, and Epics and link them together before they populate the view. See the articles below.
