Vertical dependency lines in Gantt chart #3290

Open notuntoward opened 2 years ago

notuntoward commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Mermaid Gantt charts don't have an option (that I have found) to draw vertical lines between dependent tasks. This makes it hard to visually identify dependencies on large Gantt charts -- in order to find out what dependency has pushed a task to a later date, you must look at the mermaid markdown.

Describe the solution you'd like Draw a thin vertical line between the end of a parent task and the start of a dependent child task. Like how MS Project and others do it. The lines could be drawn between all tasks, or to avoid a crowded diagram, they could be optionally turned on for certain parent/child dependencies.
