📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Gantt view detects today, centers on it when the view loads or the project changes, and provides a localized manual scrolling button.

1. Past projects omit today 📎 Requirement gap ≡ Correctness
The timeline remains bounded only by task dates, and the new guard skips auto-centering whenever today falls outside that range. Consequently, projects whose latest task is more than the existing padding before today still open without the current day visible, contrary to the required default behavior.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The initial centering is skipped when today is outside the task-derived timeline, so long-running or future projects still open without the current day visible.
## Issue Context
Expand the computed date interval to include today whenever the Gantt timeline is rendered, while retaining task padding and one-time centering. Update the test that currently expects no auto-scroll for a past project.

…ding for the task rail
Three fixes for the jump-to-today feature:
- Re-arm the one-time auto-center guard when the in-page project selector swaps `projectId` without unmounting the route, and list `projectId` as an effect dependency so the re-run actually fires even when `todayInRange` evaluates the same for both projects.
- Add `scroll-padding-left` on the scroll container so `scrollIntoView({ inline: "center" })` centers today's column against the space actually visible next to the sticky task rail, instead of against the whole viewport width.
- Disable the "Jump to today" button when a search filters the visible timeline down to zero tasks, even though today is still within the unfiltered project's date range.
Also fixes an indentation regression in the GanttTaskBar wrapper introduced in an earlier commit on this branch.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Check filtered task dates before enabling the button.
todayInRange comes from the unfiltered parsedTasks. A hidden task can keep today inside the timeline while every visible task is far from today. The button then remains enabled and jumps to an empty current-day area. Include a visible task that overlaps today, or the defined “near today” window, in the disabled predicate.

Description
As a PM, the Gantt view is usually the first screen I open in the morning to see where things stand. Right now it always renders starting from the earliest task in the project, so on any project that's been running a while I have to manually scroll forward to find today before I can actually see what's due this week. This PR makes the timeline center on today by default when the view loads, and adds a small "Jump to Today" button in the toolbar so you can get back to it after scrolling around to look at earlier or later work. The button is disabled when nothing is scheduled near today, since scrolling to nothing wouldn't help anyone.

Type of Change
How Has This Been Tested?
Added
gantt.test.tsxcovering both cases: the button staying disabled with no auto-scroll when nothing is scheduled near today, and the auto-center-on-load plus manual re-center behavior when a task spans today. Rantsc --noEmit,vitest run, andbiome checkfor the affected package and they're all clean. I didn't do a full production build of the whole monorepo (a couple of unrelated internal workspace packages aren't available to me locally), but the web app's own type-check, test suite, and linter all pass.Screenshots (if applicable)
N/A - this is a behavioral change, not a visual one. The Gantt view looks the same, it just opens scrolled to today's date instead of the start of the project.
Checklist
Additional Notes
Also added the
jumpToTodaytranslation key across every locale file so the button label stays consistent wherever the project is used - real translations where the file was already fully translated, English left as a placeholder for the couple of locales still catching up (which the contributing guide says is fine to do).Summary by CodeRabbit
