Line of Balance means that the diagram shows what activity shall be done at what place and at what time.
You wrote about a housing project and suggest to show at the left (Y axis) the houses and time scale as X axis. Do I understand you right? It looks like the Gantt Chart and not Time-Location.
Please clarify.
Best Regards,
Vladimir

Yes it is reletively simple to set up a line of balance view straight from the bar chart.
It works as a time - distance chart similar to Tilos.
It works on the Bar reference and the Task reference for each plot number.
Place each task on the same linear Plot Number bar and label accordingly.
This is all explained in the tutorial section.
You will find it very useful for linear projects.
One tip - Once you have set up a typical plot number copy and paste for all of them and then use the cross plot link system to set up all the links in one tap.
