Changing the style from Default to Shaded did nothing to my task list in SPO.

We did though have a JSlink for modifying the presentation of a column and we found that we lost the option to Add to/Remove from the timeline. Searching on the internet we discovered that by also adding this "~sitecollection/_layouts/15/hierarchytaskslist.js" to the JSlink restored the options.

Are your user using JSlink?

Kind regards, John

John, thanks for your reply.

No, unfortunately we are not using any JSlink as far as I can tell. As a test, I just created a new Project subsite, changed the default view of the Task list (looks like it doesn't matter what Style you set it to, other than Default) and lost the ability to Add task to timeline.

Would the JSlink be an attribute found when using Publishing pages vs. traditional templates?
