# The TimeScale

The timescale is fixed.

It shows only weeks and months for the years 2025 through 2028, that's four years (not three).

The only choice you have is to choose the starting month-year and the finishing month-year.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Do not change the timescale after tasks have been placed in it**

FigJam seems to assign random anchor points to tasks, milestones, and swim lanes, causing them to move in random directions as the time scale or page height is changed.
{% endhint %}

### How to change the time frame after tasks have been added

Don't. Instead, create a new blank TimeTable, adjust the dates and height as needed then select everything from your old schedule, minus the timetable, and copy/drag it over to your new one.
