Sequential timeline of events over a day with the duration of each event?

Question

How to create a viz that shows sequential timeline of events over a day with the duration of each event? The issue is that there could be some events that overlap in a time period. I have attached a sample data file. Thanks

Hi @Husain Ragib​, the first chart I could think of is a Gantt Bar.  It shows a bar for each event. The bar starts at the event start time, and is long according to the length of the event. With this chart you can easily see which are the longest events, as well as overlapping ones. Please have a look at the screenshot below and at the attached sample workbook. Note that for the size of the bar, you need to convert the event duration in days.     Best Regards, Paolo
