Recently, I've found that my roles pane is now on the left side of my browser, when it was previously at the bottom. How can I revert this change?

Could it be possible to see the roles at the bottom again? Couldn't this be a user setting?

This was THE BEST way I could organise my life. Without this option, it is a bit of a show stopper for me as the new layout doesn't work at all with my brain.

We are bringing the Roles board soonish...

Nethra said it better than i did, what he said is exactly what i did. On my large monitor it was amazing and i felt like i was in control of my life better. now i only see the first 2 roles and i have to scroll to see the rest.

Hi All,

Echoing all those above who said they loved the way the boards were before, where you could get a view of all the roles at once. It worked really well for me to have the boards at the bottom, under the week view, and to have the parking lot under that. The older workspace arrangement enabled me to get a full view of everything on my plate, and I found that I was keeping track of my goals and getting things done effectively. As Calvin suggested, could you make the tool flexible so that we have the option of keeping the previous workspace format or choosing the new one? That would meet my needs for using the app in a way that feels the most effective for me.

Hi, Calvin!

Thank you for your feedback. 

May we ask for your insight on how we can make the app flexible?

@sedwards is right. that is my suggestion.

here is how i use the tool.

calendar is just that


HIIT 

HIIT are the high priority things i have to do for each role of my life (i love that feature) so i plan my week on sunday and then as things come up in the week, i put them in the HIIT role until next sunday (unless it is critical and i do it now, if i can schedule it then i do or if not i wait until sunday)

boards

i use for storing any random list or things far away, shopping list, bucket lists, things to do more than 30 days away.

i loved the old view b/c on my 22inch monitor, i could go to a calendar view (day/week) and see everything and then drag and drop things up from my various roles in my life and. i could see more the roles. 


to me. this is a simple solution, add a feature to switch things back if desired or keep them there if you want. then the bug is a feature :)

I agree with Calvin completely. I realize I don't use it as intended. I do use the Plan of the Week as a backlog and I really like it that way. But now that that it's moved to the left, I also suffer from not being able to see get a good overview. I had another worker in my office about to commit to using Week Plan until this change as he was doing the same thing. This must be a common "misuse."

I think Calvin is suggesting adding an option or making the sections draggable for customizable placement.

I see where you are going and love the direction but just a suggestion, why not make the tool flexible so we can use it the way that best works for us? I mean i love the tool and i use the boards for different than HIT and would really love to have the option to make it one way or the other.
