Gantt Chart - ReadOnly
Hi,
I want my Gantt chart to be read-only for specific users, but an 'Issue Reader' can also move items along the timeline.
I created a user with only the ‘Issue Reader’ role, which works as expected on other aspects of the project.
He can't see my Gantt chart by default, so I added him through the Gantt chart's option ‘Settings > Privacy > Can use’.
After that he could see the chart. But although he can't edit any individual issue field, he is able to move all the issues to different dates.
Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Hi,
Thank you for reaching out!
To restrict users from making changes on the Gantt chart, you can link the Estimation and Start date fields to existing fields in the Gantt chart settings. This ensures that only users with permission to update these field values can modify the properties on the Gantt chart. For example, you can configure this by setting the updatable by option for the fields.
Additionally, we have a public issue to enhance the current logic for permissions on the Gantt chart: JT-68860. Please feel free to vote for it if you'd like to track its progress.
