New features and improvements implemented


Yesterday we have managed to silently deploy a patch that is not just bug fixing, but also has some functionalities implemented. This refers to:

•    Default space when you log in is the space you worked at last before you logged out or before your session expired.

•    Project name where mentioned on the Dashboard is now a link to the Gantt chart for the specific project.

•    Back to top links in the wiki pages – if you have many paragraphs in a wiki page, you can simply click “Back to top” instead of scrolling up and down the page.

•    The Projects&Tasks list in the Wiki tab has been complemented with additional icons in front of every task and project. If the icon is  ProjectOffice.net Wiki - Project status or ProjectOffice.net Wiki - Task status , it means that there is no wiki created for the specific project or task, and if the icon is ProjectOffice.net - Projects status  or ProjectOffice.net Wiki - Task status , it means that there is at least one wiki created for the specific project or task.

•    Even a great application like ours has spelling mistakes and thanks to our users we have managed to identify and change all of them (hopefully ).

•    It may happen that you have several issues with the same name or you want to see what the issue is about. Up until now you needed to open each issue to find the information you want. Thus, we put a tooltip for each issue in the Issues list. This tooltip shows the specific issue description.


Over and out for now!

How to make history?


By definition history is a chronological record of significant events (as affecting a nation or institution) often including an explanation of their causes.

Because everything and everyone has history - we decided to create history in our application.

The question is: Where and why we added history?

The answer: We added history in the Issues tab for a very simple reason: In order to anticipate the future you must know the history.

Issues History can be reached in Issues Options in Issues tab. To check the history for a specific issue you should open the issue and click on the History tab. Then, details for every change that was made to an issue is shown: the action that was performed, project, task, priority, status, type, severity, assigned to and description of the issue.

ProjectOffice.net - Issues History

Soon to come are the histories for: Projects&Tasks, Time&Expenses and Wikis.
