Quick Access to Card Hierarchy


Clickable URLs in the Card Description
Now, you can double-click an URL mentioned in the card description, and open it in a new tab.
Adding To-Do’s in Kanban Cards using Microsoft™ Office
Now, you can add To-Do’s in your Kanban card simply by creating them in a Microsoft Excel or Word file, and copying them into the To-Do section.
Default Card Type for Swim Lanes
Now, you can set the default card type for a smart lane. So, every time you add a card into that lane, by default it will pick up the card type which you have set for that smart lane.
Improved User WIP View
You can now get a comprehensive, drilled-down, card-level details of User WIP. Click any column in the user WIP list, and get the card Id, description, and the current queue of the related cards.
Color Customization of CFD diagrams
Customizing CFD Analytics is now a lot easier. You can now directly set your preferred color for each lane in the CFD settings screen, and render each lane of that chart according to that color combination.
Deleting a Project
Deleting a project has been made easy. On the Project listing page, select the project that you want to delete, and click the Delete icon on the auto-hide tool bar.
Revamped Admin Preferences

Viewing Card Type in the Edit Mode
Now, you can view card type along with the card id in the edit card mode. So, you not only get to know other details like card attributes, but also the card type.
