    Interesting question. I was asked that years ago, when still on my old CAD. The intention was to align the CAD project with shop flor management. I found a way to extract the assembly tree as an XML file, and that could then be turned into all sorts of diagrams. Depending on what you're up to: Would the BOM be a good starting point for this?

    Do you mean a diagram of the connectivity of a document or between documents? I've done something similar recently for finding circular dependencies and duplicated versions. Something like this could be modified to work for part studios as well:

    Is that done via some kind of JSON/XML export and dot or did you use something else to generate the diagram?

    doc traversal via api and graphviz (dot) for render.

    I assume the original post was about a Gantt chart for tracking tasks, subtasks and milestones in a project.

    The quick answer is no, Onshape doesn't do that.

    Onshape does have basic task tracking:

    That said, @jnewth , I'd love to see a document reference visualizer like that.
