Easy on the eyes, Useful for internal and external partners to read and differentiate projects. No different from adding product status on roadmap, instead you get the option to add a symbol "check mark"
Thank you for your idea. Currently it is possible to show status on bars on the custom roadmap a couple ways:
Adding the status field to the bar
Coloring the bar by status
Given the available options and low support for this idea, we are unlikely to add a new option here. We hope you can understand.
