Project Timeline rendering squished

Question

hi,

on a number of project pages, our timelines have started rendering in the following way:

i checked the page layout and made sure the timeline is in the space across the entire top. nothing has been changed to the layout of these pages. 

is this happening because the task are due at a much earlier date (such as 11/14/14)? 

is there a way to fix the look of the timelines rendering like this like a setting or something to fix it? i tried messing around with these options but nothing seems to fix it. 

what is causing this and how do i fix it? 

thank you for any help or feedback. i greatly appreciate it.

I had messed around with changing the task due dates and that did adjust the width of the timeline.

This problem has seemed to fix itself.

I wonder if some changes had been made that caused it to render in such away and have since been fixed?

Hi Kelsey,

The timeline rendering shouldn't be corrupted even if the tasks are due at a much earlier date. So to better understand the situation, please click "EDIT LIST" and capture a screenshot for us, this will help us reproduce the issue from our side.

Note: You can upload the screenshots by clicking Use rich formatting in the forum and then clicking the icon of Insert Image.
