My Tasks, Cycles, Comments redesign & Custom Roles
All releasesPersonal task dashboard, time-boxed cycles, redesigned comments with replies, inline file previews, custom roles, and a round of fixes.
New
-
Reply to comments: Comments now support replies — click Reply under any comment to respond directly to its author.
-
Custom Roles: Workspace Owners can now create and edit custom roles with a fully configurable permission matrix in Settings → Roles.
-
My Tasks dashboard: The home screen has been rebuilt into a personal view — with stats and an overview of your current tasks across the workspace.
-
Cycles: Time-boxed sprints are now available across the workspace and per project. Create and manage cycles, assign tasks to a cycle directly from the task panel, filter the board by cycle, and track progress with burndown, distribution, and workload charts. Available on River and Alpheus plans.
-
Analytics: A new Analytics page is available for workspace owners and admins, covering team activity, task distribution, and a project breakdown.
Improved
-
Comments: Cleaner redesign with a timeline layout. The section is now collapsible.
-
Delete confirmation: Deleting a comment now requires confirmation in a dialog.
-
File icons: Each file type now has a color-coded icon with a label — PDF, DOC, XLS, video, ZIP, code files, images, and more.
-
File previews: Clicking a file attachment opens an inline preview dialog. Images, PDFs, video, and audio all display directly — no new tab needed. A Download button saves the file straight to disk.
-
Permission matrix: Simplified and cleaned up — three redundant project-level permissions that had no effect have been removed. Custom roles can also be granted the new
cycle:managepermission via workspace settings. -
UI respects permissions: The “New Project” button and the + shortcut in the sidebar are now hidden for roles without project creation permission.
Fixed
- Workspace name and description: Changes made in Settings → General are now properly saved. Previously the form appeared to submit successfully but changes were never persisted.
- Change Role visibility: Admins no longer see the “Change Role” option for members they don’t have permission to edit.
