New work package page
The work package view has been improved by several significant changes, including an integrated query title, an integrated column header context menu for frequently used actions and an integrated toolbar for page-wide settings.
To see the improvements, take a look at the new work package list on OpenProject.
Alternatively, check out the current development version of OpenProject the OpenProject development branch:
git clone https://github.com/opf/openproject.git -b dev
The following improvements have been made:
Integrated query title
The pre-configured filter selection has been integrated in the work package title to allow a quick and efficient switch between different queries.
- Query selection is integrated in the page title
- Queries are separated in global queries (visible to all users) and custom queries (visible only to the users themselves)
- Auto-completion of query name
Column header functions
To provide users with a maximum of flexibility, it is possible to perform some of the most frequently used actions right on a column header.
The available column actions are:
- Sorting a column ascending or descending
- Grouping by a column
- Moving a column in the work package table to the right or left
- Hide a column from the work package table
- Add an additional column (via modal)
Integrated toolbar
The integrated toolbar in the upper right allows users to create work packages, configure filters and configure page-related settings.
Collapsible filter section
Work package filters can be collapsed completely and allow more space for the displayed work package list.
Page configuration in menu settings
Configurations related to the entire work package list are applied via the menu settings.
The different configuration options are displayed in modals.
The menu contains the following options:
- By opening the columns modal, additional columns can be added or removed from the table, as well as their order changed
- Via the sorting modal, the first, second and third sorting criterion can be applied
- Grouping via the grouping modal
- Activate sums to display of summable attributes such as story points
- Once a page is configured to your liking it can be saved via the Save modal
- A saved query can be used as the basis for a new query by selecting Save as and entering the name of the new query
- Delete selected queries
- A work package list can be exported via the export modal
- Via the visibility modal a query can be made public for other users and a query can be added to the project navigation on the left side
- To rename a query select Page settings and enter a new query name
Next steps
In the next step, a work package detail view will be added to the work package table.
Take a look at the following prototype to get a first impression of the next features.
