Overview: The Resource Allocation calendar has been visually refined to improve readability and reduce clutter, especially on days with multiple allocations for the same resource. Previously, short-duration allocations and overloaded schedules were difficult to interpret at a glance. This update introduces a cleaner timeline layout, clearer visual hierarchy, and more intuitive indicators for capacity and overtime.Start writing here...
Updates:
1. Improved Allocation Visualization:
- All allocations up to 1 hour (including 5, 10, and 30-minute tasks) are now displayed using a minimum visual height to ensure readability.
- Allocations longer than 1 hour continue to scale proportionally based on their duration

2. Simplified Timeline Display:
- Allocation blocks now show only start time and duration directly on the timeline.
- Detailed information has been moved into hover tooltips, reducing visual noise.

3. Enhanced Capacity & Overtime Indicators:
- UI color codes have been refined to clearly distinguish workload states:
- Red: Capacity exceeded for the selected time period (overtime)

• Instant Overtime Awareness: Users can immediately identify over-allocation and capacity issues.
