      In the Advanced Roadmaps (Plans) timeline, we can currently:

      • See releases displayed along the top of the view, and
      • See issues scheduled on the timeline, including using sprint dates for scheduling.

      However, unlike the board / project Timeline view, Plans does not show:

      • A dedicated Sprints lane across the top of the timeline, alongside
      • A Releases lane.

      In the board / project Timeline view, this combination is very powerful because we can:

      • Visually see sprint boundaries,
      • See release milestones, and
      • Understand at a glance how work, sprints, and releases line up over time.

      In Plans, we’d like to have a similar experience so we can get that same clarity at the multi‑project / multi‑team level.

      Current results

      • Plans timeline shows:
        • Issue bars
        • Release markers along the top
        • Sprints only implicitly (e.g., via issue dates or sprint capacity views)
      • There is no way to enable a separate Sprints lane across the timeline in Plans.

      Expected results

      Please add an option in Advanced Roadmaps (Plans) to:

      • Show a Sprints lane on the timeline (similar to the project/board Timeline view), and
      • Show this lane together with Releases, so both sprint windows and release dates are visible at the same time.

      Workarounds 

      • Use Plans for cross‑project planning and rely on the board Timeline view for a single board’s sprint + release visualization.
      • Configure issues in Plans to inherit dates from their sprints, so the issue bars line up with sprint timing—but this still doesn’t provide a dedicated sprint lane across the plan timeline.
